This procurement falls under the services category, specifically aimed at research services, and is currently in the Tender stage, with submissions due by 13th December 2021. The contract is scheduled to commence on 14th January 2022 and conclude on 29th July 2022, with delivery required across various regions in the UK, including London, the Midlands, and the North East. This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in research consultancy and evaluation services. Companies that have experience in educational programme assessments, qualitative and quantitative data analysis, and impact case studies could find this challenge well-suited to their expertise. Engaging in this evaluation can also expand their portfolios and facilitate further contracts within the public sector, enhancing their professional growth and market presence. ## Notice The purpose of this tender is to secure the services of a tenderer to deliver an independent impact evaluation, with an embedded brief process evaluation, of college governance and leadership workforce development programmes delivered by the Education and Training Foundation (ETF) with Department for Education (DfE) grant-funding in 2021-22, building on insights from our evaluation in 2019-20 and 2020-21. The evaluation will assess impact on participants' professional practice, provider performance and learner outcomes (where appropriate), compare the effectiveness of different programmes within three core programme areas (governance, strategic leadership, middle management) in meeting their aims and objectives, recommend improvements to strengthen programme quality and maximise impact, and inform future programme investment and design decisions. The project will follow good practice in impact measurement and HM Treasury evaluation guidance, analyse programme management information and participant survey data supplied by the ETF, and collect other primary data through interviews, surveys and impact case studies (the latter involving participants from previous programme years where possible). ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/490d7987-09bb-4611-8c01-a9137e87233f | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 22 Nov 2021 | | Submission deadline | 13 Dec 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 14 Jan 2022 - 29 Jul 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE EDUCATION AND TRAINING FOUNDATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1W 9SP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | Pimlico North | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLE Yorkshire and The Humber, TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLI London, TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 73110000 - Research services - 73200000 - Research and development consultancy services - 73210000 - Research consultancy services - 73300000 - Design and execution of research and development - 79419000 - Evaluation consultancy services - 80000000 - Education and training services ## Release History - 22 Nov 2021 at 17:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/490d7987-09bb-4611-8c01-a9137e87233f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/490d7987-09bb-4611-8c01-a9137e87233f 22nd November 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV163181 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.et-foundation.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
