## Summary

Highways England is seeking suppliers for the "T0033 Scoping for the Analytical Capability Programme" contract, aimed at enhancing analytical capacity within the Chief Analysts Division (CAD). This initiative is classified under research and development services and related consultancy services (CPV Code: 73000000). The procurement method used is selective, through a call-off from the SPaTS2 Lot1 framework. The tender process concluded on 18 January 2021, with the contract awarded on 22 February 2021, to an estimated value of £106,766.91. The contract period is scheduled to last from 22 February to 24 May 2021, covering locations including the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories.

This opportunity is well-suited for consultancy and analytical service providers, particularly those specialising in research and development. Smaller and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, as the project seeks to engage with diverse suppliers to enhance analytical capabilities. The focus on providing immediate 'quick wins' means businesses that can demonstrate best practices in analytical methods and tools will be particularly competitive in this tender process, contributing to their growth and expanding their portfolio in the public sector.

## Notice

Highways England wishes to engage with suppliers on the SPaTS2 Lot1 framework to support the Chief Analysts Division (CAD) in scoping the Analytical Capability programme through each of its three workstreams. The initial three-month scoping phase must: 1. Scope out a sustainable programme for improving analytical capability: Shaping CAD's vision for analysis as a service; setting the priorities for promoting consistent statistics and better communicating analysis; and recommending what short, medium, and long-term actions should be implemented. The priority is to scope the programme for analytical capability in CAD but this needs to be cognisant of analysis across Highways England. 2. Provide a series of 'quick wins': Providing expert advice, showcasing best practice guidance and working interactively with analysts to apply these principles within their work areas. Piloting and providing examples of guidance documents, toolkits, and templates to demonstrate improvements in analytical capability. It is intended that this initial scoping phase will provide the basis for a continued programme of work in developing and delivering improvements in analytical capability.
