The contract is expected to commence on 22nd June 2018 and run until 30th August 2019, with a contract value of £12,540. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly those specialising in evaluation and consultancy services within the education and training sectors.

Moreover, businesses focusing on supporting diverse groups, including women and ethnic minority entrepreneurs, may find this project aligns with their objectives, thereby fostering economic development in the region. ## Notice The Centre for Innovation and Partnership (CIPs) was established by Newham College of Further Education in 1997 to lead on activities to support the local and regional regeneration agenda, and to open up new ways of training and supporting individuals and businesses. Central to all of this is CIPs ability to establish strong partnerships and secure external funding. In the current year, CIPs has successfully secured over PS5m of external funding which has created a major capacity for partnerships, collaboration, development, and innovation projects. The College supports businesses across a wide range of sectors, and specialises in support to business start-ups, creative businesses, and businesses owned by women and people from Black and Asian Minority Ethnic communities. The Enterprise Steps project is led by Newham College with London South Bank University and Enterprise for London. The project identifies and engages pre-trade and early stage SMEs pan-London to create new enterprises and help existing enterprises survive, prosper and grow. The Enterprise Steps model provides intensive start up and training support for new enterprises, which then move onto the business support and mentoring programme. We also have a third strand which identifies and provides intensive support to enterprises with high growth potential. The European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) is one of the European Union's Structural Funds which is used to tackle regional disparities across Europe. ERDF helps to stimulate economic development and growth; it provides support to businesses, encourages innovation and supports regeneration. Newham College of Further Education seeks to contract a project evaluator for the 'Enterprise Steps' project, which is part funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) in London. The opportunity is to conduct an external project summative assessment of all project activity and to inform improvements in the way the project is delivered until its closure in September 2019. The successful supplier will be responsible for a full impact evaluation report that responds to the requirements of both the GLA and the project partners and which follows the ERDF Project Summative Assessment Guidance. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/18c28151-def9-409e-abfe-fa9d334a3985 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 21 May 2018 | | Submission deadline | 4 Jun 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 21 Jun 2018 - 30 Aug 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £12,540 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NEWHAM COLLEGE OF FURTHER EDUCATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | East London | | Postcode | E6 6ER | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI41 Hackney and Newham | | Local authority | Newham | | Electoral ward | East Ham | | Westminster constituency | East Ham | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79400000 - Business and management consultancy and related services - 79900000 - Miscellaneous business and business-related services ## Release History - 21 May 2018 at 09:36 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/18c28151-def9-409e-abfe-fa9d334a3985 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/18c28151-def9-409e-abfe-fa9d334a3985 21st May 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/483ee911-a1b2-46b5-95bb-2ba302339730 Evaluation Specification - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/bedc926e-4437-45d9-ac37-a5e4f67dc7fb Summative Assessment Guidance - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d086e32a-c364-45b8-9adb-36a6519fb427 Summative Assessment Guidance Appendices - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/33cc1add-be49-46e1-8ad9-44efa9d96794 Summative Assessment Plan Form - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/4fe60f0c-bf20-442f-9721-271c1fe363ed Summative Assessment Report Summary - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/b430bb3b-5ca4-476c-acfa-04af721c373c Summative Assessment Data Monitoring ## Notice URLs - http://www.enterprisesteps.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
