## Summary

The procurement process titled "Aspire to HE - Evaluation," conducted by the University of Wolverhampton Enterprise Limited, involves the provision of evaluation consultancy services in the education sector. This contract is based in the West Midlands, England, and is currently in the Award stage following its completion. The tender period concluded on 20th June 2018, with the contract period commencing on 25th June 2018 and extending until 24th June 2019. This award was published on 21st June 2018, and the procurement method utilised was a tender under the University of Wolverhampton's established thresholds.

This tender presents significant opportunities for consultancy firms specialising in evaluation services, particularly those with expertise in higher education access and widening participation. Businesses well-suited to compete for this contract are likely to include larger consultancy firms, as the project may require substantial resources and experience in conducting comprehensive evaluations in collaboration with educational institutions. Engaging in this tender could enhance a business's portfolio and network within the academic sector, fostering growth through further contracts and collaborations.

## Notice

The service provider will design an overall evaluation framework for Aspire to HE and provide detailed evaluations on specific project work being delivered by the consortium. All National Collaborative Outreach Consortia are required to conduct local, consortia-led evaluations of their programme delivery (in line with HEFCE guidance). During phase 1 of the Aspire to HE/ NCOP project, the University of Wolverhampton's own College of Learning and Teaching were contracted to deliver this evaluation. However, given the expertise required in the areas of HE access and widening participation, limited progress has taken place.
