## Summary

The Home Office has awarded a contract for the Social Media Hub Evaluation project to Ecorys UK Limited. The contract, valued at £526,035, involves research services and has a contract period from October 25, 2022, to March 31, 2025. The procurement method used was selective, with a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender period ended on September 27, 2022. The buying organisation is the Home Office, located in London, with Lyn Severn as the contact person.

This contract provides an opportunity for companies specialising in research services to collaborate with the Home Office on evaluating the impact and outcomes of Social Media Hubs. The project aims to conduct feasibility, impact/outcome, and process evaluations of the hubs' activities. Businesses with experience in research and evaluation in social media engagement and impact assessment would be well-suited to compete for this contract, which focuses on generating valuable insights for decision-making and policy development within the public sector.

## Notice

The Home Office requires an independent Evaluation Partner to carry out an evaluation of activity undertaken through the Social Media Hubs. The main deliverables will be: * A feasibility study (exploring the available data and possible methods to conduct a robust impact evaluation); * An impact/outcome evaluation (to understand the effect of the Social Media Hub funding on associated outcomes, the longer-term impacts, and whether the programme has been economically beneficial); * A process evaluation of activity undertaken by the Social Media Hubs relating to their use of funding and to understand how the programme has since progressed.
