This procurement falls under the research and development services category (CPV Code: 73000000) and is actively seeking submissions until 19th August 2019. The contract is scheduled to commence on 6th September 2019 and will run until 31st March 2020. Interested parties can participate via the eSourcing portal linked in the opportunity notice. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in consultancy and research services, particularly those with expertise in the arts and cultural sectors. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to apply, as the scope of the report requires nuanced insights into diverse artistic practices and community needs within the South Asian sector. Engaging with this project can enhance visibility and establish valuable partnerships within the arts community. ## Notice The aim is to have a clear, detailed and nuanced picture of the full breadth of practice of the South Asian music and dance ecology in the UK as it currently stands. This will be used as an evidence base to underpin how ACE can best respond to recommendations and achieve more strategic impact for the South Asian dance and music sector. The report will also be used as a common ground of understanding to strengthen the dialogue between Arts Council and the sector. The report should include: - A national map of existing South Asian dance and music activity not currently regularly funded by ACE (non-NPOs), which includes classical, folk and popular forms. - A detailed overview of provision, distribution and potential new opportunities within the professional and community context. - New insights into the strengths and vulnerabilities of the sector with thorough analysis of where activity is taking place, by whom and who it is for through evidence of business models and artistic practice. - A clear picture of where the gaps are for the sector, offer opportunities for the sector to grow and recommendations for how ACE can better support and reach part of the South Asian sector it is currently not reaching.
