## Summary

This procurement, classified under foreign economic-aid-related services, involves a total value of £293,553 and will run from 24 May 2018 until 31 March 2023. The tender process was a selective procurement method, executed as a call-off from a framework agreement, with the tender period concluding on 22 March 2018.

This opportunity presents significant potential for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) with experience in programme evaluation and economic aid services. Businesses well-suited to compete in this tender will likely have a strong understanding of the Development Impact Bonds framework and the capacity to deliver comprehensive evaluations that inform future aid delivery strategies for DFID. Registration on the DFID Supplier Portal is necessary for any interested suppliers wishing to engage in this contract.

## Notice

The primary purpose of the evaluation is to generate learning and recommendations that could inform decisions on the future use of DIBs as an instrument for aid delivery. The evaluation will cover all three projects under the DFID-supported DIBs Pilot Programme. In particular, this evaluation is expected to generate learning that will inform DFID's future policy aiming to make the most effective use of DIBs as we look to commission new instruments, or incorporate DIBs and similar structures into existing programmes. The evaluation will also help DFID and pilot project partners evaluate whether the tools they are developing are useful, scalable and replicable.
