The contract worth £100,000 falls under the education and training services category and is currently in the Award stage, with the contract period set to begin on 8 March 2019 and conclude on 8 September 2020. Interested bidders were required to submit their proposals by 27 February 2019 and can access the tender details through the British Council's e-Tendering portal. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for SMEs specialising in evaluation and training services to expand their operations and establish connections within the arts sector. Businesses with experience in monitoring and evaluation, particularly those focused on inclusivity and community engagement for older and disabled populations, would be well-suited to compete for this contract. As the project supports significant arts initiatives in Japan, companies with established networks in the region may find this a particularly advantageous opportunity. ## Notice The overall objective of the work is to deliver a comprehensive evaluation of the Japan Season that supports ongoing organisational learning about effective practice in delivering against Season objectives, which can be utilised for a range of stakeholders and audiences. We are designing the Season to deliver against three specific objectives: i) to develop new partnerships, opportunities and trust between arts and creative institutions in Japan and the UK; ii) to support the development of more inclusive arts audiences in Japan, specifically for older and disabled populations; and iii) expanding the opportunities for disabled artists in Japan to work professionally. Although these are specific objectives for the Season, they form part of a long-term strategy for British Council Japan, with the Season offering an opportunity to accelerate and amplify progress against them. Additional information: Suppliers who wish to express an interest and take part in the tender process will be required to register on our e-Tendering portal In-Tend hosted at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/britishcouncil. Once registered, bidders must log-in to the website where they can view the project and access the bidders pack and submit their return. Bidders will also be required to demonstrate their capability and 'means of proof' will be required. These conditions are outlined in the RFP. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/18023ac4-ba01-404e-965b-d380401ac9dd | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 16 Apr 2019 | | Submission deadline | 27 Feb 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 26 Mar 2019 | | Contract period | 29 Mar 2019 - 29 Oct 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £100,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £89,600 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | BRITISH COUNCIL(THE) | | Locality | MANCHESTER | | Post town | Manchester | | Postcode | M1 6BB | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD3 Greater Manchester | | ITL 3 | TLD33 Manchester | | Local authority | Manchester | | Electoral ward | Piccadilly | | Westminster constituency | Manchester Central | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | IN2IMPACT (APPLIED MARKET SOLUTIONS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80000000 - Education and training services ## Release History - 16 Apr 2019 at 09:40 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/18023ac4-ba01-404e-965b-d380401ac9dd - 8 Feb 2019 at 10:37 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/358fd531-7e72-4197-8373-6c20b23d2a93 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/18023ac4-ba01-404e-965b-d380401ac9dd 16th April 2019 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/358fd531-7e72-4197-8373-6c20b23d2a93 8th February 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://in-tendhost.co.uk/britishcouncil ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
