This procurement falls under the services category, specifically for evaluation consultancy services (CPV: 79419000). The tender was published on 20th September 2018 and has a tender period that ended on 12th October 2018. The contract, valued at £30,000, is set to commence on 29th October 2018 and will conclude on 31st March 2020, with delivery expected primarily in the South West region of England. The procurement method is an open procedure, which allows for a broader pool of suppliers to participate in the bidding process. This tender offers an excellent opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in evaluation consultancy and health-related projects, allowing them to contribute to enhancing digital health services in the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly region. By designing research questions and evaluating the impactful aspects of the EPIC project, successful bidders can aid in the development of essential healthcare strategies, thereby potentially expanding their portfolio and capabilities within the public sector. Engaging with this project could lead to further business prospects within the healthcare and innovation sectors, supporting economic growth and productivity in the area. ## Notice The University of Plymouth will be inviting Tenders for the programme evaluation of the E-health Productivity & Innovation Cornwall & Isles of Scilly (EPIC) - which is taking a new, user led approach to take digital health in Cornwall & Isles of Scilly. EPIC is a project part funded by the European Regional Development Fund that will use a new, user led approach to take digital health in Cornwall & Isles of Scilly from a nascent market to one which is more developed, productive, accepted and embedded within the health and care sector to drive economic growth and productivity. EPIC is being led by the University of Plymouth (UoP), who will be the accountable body for ERDF. It will be delivered in partnership with a range of delivery and strategic partners to ensure healthcare professionals, commissioners, policy makers and innovators can drive and adopt change. Creative England is a key delivery partner in the EPIC programme. The programme evaluation should identify what difference the project is making and why this is the case. The successful Tenderer will be required to design detailed research questions alongside SME's and sector stakeholders to reflect both the evaluation measures and the target groups: both formative and summative elements of the evaluation need to be included.
