The Heart of the South West Local Enterprise Partnership has appointed a contractor to conduct two pieces of evaluation work through to September 2017. The two pieces of work are: * The Annual Strategic Review - Reflecting on progress against Strategic Economic Plan (SEP) objectives and priorities, evidencing action taken by the LEP to further these priorities. A particular focus of the review will be to evidence the Strategic Added Value achieved by the LEP (e.g. influencing partners), as well as securing direct investment. The review would also reflect on our overall economic performance and progress towards our key outcomes. * Process Review - the LEP rapidly established a PS500m investment portfolio through to early 2016. Some of the individual investments in the portfolio are complete with others yet to start. A process evaluation will help understand which elements of the process are working well and which elements are not whilst providing an opportunity for our stakeholders to feedback. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0609ef1e-cafa-4aa9-830f-f9ba5049ae34 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 29 Mar 2017 | | Submission deadline | 27 Mar 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 28 Mar 2017 | | Contract period | 29 Mar 2017 - 30 Sep 2017 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £60,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £26,368 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SOMERSET COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | TAUNTON | | Post town | Taunton | | Postcode | TA1 4DY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK6 North Somerset, Somerset and Dorset | | ITL 3 | TLK62 Somerset | | Local authority | Somerset | | Electoral ward | Bishop's Hull & Taunton West | | Westminster constituency | Taunton and Wellington | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | ASH FUTURES | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 72221000 - Business analysis consultancy services - 72224000 - Project management consultancy services - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 29 Mar 2017 at 11:43 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0609ef1e-cafa-4aa9-830f-f9ba5049ae34 - 29 Mar 2017 at 11:41 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0609ef1e-cafa-4aa9-830f-f9ba5049ae34 - 7 Mar 2017 at 11:48 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4fadbedb-c752-4682-b5cb-81d8482dd7f1 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0609ef1e-cafa-4aa9-830f-f9ba5049ae34 29th March 2017 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4fadbedb-c752-4682-b5cb-81d8482dd7f1 7th March 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=0fd91652-8202-e711-80dd-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - https://www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
