## Summary

The National Archives (TNA) has recently completed the procurement process for the "Diversity and Inclusion Review" project, aimed at evaluating the Archives Revealed and Collaborate and Innovate funding programmes. This review will delve into eligibility criteria, application processes, and support provided to applicants, with the goal of identifying any potential biases or barriers. The tender was conducted through an open procedure, with bids due by 21 January 2020. The contract period extends from 28 January 2020 to 31 March 2020, and the location for delivery is Richmond, England.

This procurement presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in research and consulting services, particularly those focused on diversity, inclusion, and related consultancy. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to engage, as the process seeks to address broader social issues, which could align with the capabilities of organisations dedicated to these causes. Engaging in this project could help businesses expand their portfolio and enhance their profile within public sector services.

## Notice
