## Summary

The public procurement process described involves the Department for International Development (DFID), which is seeking to evaluate the performance of the Punjab Education Sector Programme (PESP) 2 through the DFID 7913 Call Down Contract. The procurement is classified under foreign economic-aid-related services and falls under the services category. The tender was awarded on 7th August 2017 and the evaluation contract will run from 8th August 2017 until 31st March 2020. This opportunity is of particular significance as it pertains to educational initiatives in multiple districts with low access and learning outcomes, specifically focusing on enhancing education for both girls and boys.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in evaluation services, particularly those focused on educational programmes, performance assessments, and related consultancy work. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in educational consulting, programme evaluation, or related fields would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Engaging in this process could lead to further contracts within the realm of educational support and development, fostering growth and expansion within the sector.

## Notice

The purpose is to conduct a performance evaluation of PESP 2 and its contribution to the outcome as stated in the programme's logical framework (more children staying in school longer and learning more) with specific reference to the 11 districts where education access and learning outcomes for girls and boys are particularly low. The evaluation will assess the contribution of the five outputs to the outcome and consider whether there are other causal links that may need to be addressed and that have not been identified in the programme design.
