This procurement falls under the services category, specifically evaluation consultancy services, and is based in Edgbaston, United Kingdom. The tendering process is open and is scheduled to close on 1st October 2019. The budget for this evaluation service is capped at £15,500, which includes VAT. The contract is expected to commence on 4th October 2019 and conclude by 31st January 2020. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, allowing for broader participation. This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in evaluation consultancy services. Businesses with expertise in project evaluations that can deliver insightful assessments related to local economic impacts will find this opportunity particularly beneficial. The project's context, geared towards enhancing SME support under the ERDF initiative, creates a conducive environment for firms skilled in providing comprehensive evaluation services to compete effectively. ## Notice The Accelerating Thermal Energy Technology Adoption (ATETA) project is a part funded ERDF initiative established to support SMEs, which started in April 2017 and will complete at the end of February 2020. In line with latest ERDF guidance published in August 2017, the University of Birmingham invites tenders to undertake an evaluation of the ATETA Project and provide a final summative/evaluation assessment report together with a summary (both word and pdf documents) in line with the requirements of the ERDF summative assessment guidance and further requirements noted within the tender document. The Summative Assessment is intended to provide insights into project performance and impact. The Summative Assessment should help us to understand the difference that the ATETA Project has made in the local economy, communities and beneficiary groups. Although the value of this procurement is below the EU Public Procurement Threshold the University has self-imposed a 20 day full open publication of this tender. The budget for the evaluation service is up to a maximum of PS15,500 inclusive of VAT for ATETA.
