## Summary

The South Downs National Park Authority is overseeing a procurement process for monitoring and evaluation services under the project titled "Downs to the Sea: Monitoring & Evaluation of Delivery Phase." This initiative, classified under the industry category of 'Evaluation consultancy services' (CPV: 79419000), is located in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The contract, awarded through an open procedure, involves Resources For Change Ltd as the supplier. The procurement has now reached the award stage, with a contract period set from 27th January 2025 to 31st December 2027. Key delivery locations include Midhurst, West Sussex, with the postal code GU29 9DH. The tender period concluded on 19th December 2024.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in consultancy services, particularly those equipped to perform comprehensive evaluations of environmental projects. The contract, valued at £34,781.25, seeks skilled evaluators to aid in both interim and final evaluations, making it well-suited for SMEs interested in growing their portfolios in public sector contracts. The project emphasises the enhancement of key habitats and water resources, thus companies with expertise in environmental impact assessments and community engagement will find this opportunity particularly attractive for business expansion.

## Notice

Downs to the Sea has been designed to make urgent, targeted interventions that will build on the evidence and the legacy of previous work and leave a platform for continued impact through ongoing partnerships. It is a 2.5 year project to rapidly deliver vital improvements at key habitats, to increase precious water resources and to further embed ways of working that will enable those that access nature the least but can benefit the most to foster a critical connection to blue and green spaces. We are now seeking the use of external evaluators to support the practical implementation of the evaluation plan and to provide external scrutiny in conducting interim and final evaluations.
