This procurement falls under the category of foreign economic-aid-related services. The contract, valued at £305,097 GBP, was awarded through a selective procurement method with a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period ended on June 16, 2023, and the contract is set to run from September 29, 2023, to October 15, 2024, covering various regions including British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. This awarded tender by FCDO offers opportunities for businesses, particularly in the services sector, to participate in evaluating and supporting UK Met Office's WISER programmes. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in foreign economic-aid-related services would find this tender suitable. The project aims to assess and enhance the effectiveness and sustainability of weather and climate information services across different regions. Businesses capable of delivering high-quality monitoring, evaluation, and data collection services are well-positioned to contribute to the successful implementation of these programmes and the generation of impact through evidence-based decision-making. ## Notice FCDO sought supplier to conduct a three-part thematic evaluation of 5 (concluded and active) FCDO programmes supporting delivery of UK Met Office's Weather and climate Information Services (WISER) across three regions (Middle East and North Africa, Africa, and Indo-Pacific). The work consists of three elements: - Evidence & Learning summary based on the evaluative products from 2 historical programmes. The summary will inform development of three new regional programmes by highlighting which approaches have proved most effective in co-producing useful, relevant, and accessible weather and climate information services and in ensuring this information was actively used for evidence-based decision making. The review should also highlight the mechanism behind change happening: why and how changes occurred, particularly in Fragile and Conflict Afflicted States (FCAS) and -where relevant- how change might have happened differently for women and girls. - Sustainability of results from two historical programmes to assess which results have proved sustainable after programme closure and why. - Opportunity to support additional data collection exercises for three new regional programmes supporting WISER. With possibility to seize opportunities for rapid testing of interventions to maximise value for money, demonstrating impact, and filling-in evidence gaps around the theory of change ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0a7c5859-142c-457a-97df-cfa7204b2007 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Call-off from a framework agreement | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Feb 2024 | | Submission deadline | 16 Jun 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 28 Sep 2023 | | Contract period | 28 Sep 2023 - 15 Oct 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £305,097 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £305,097 | | 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 | FOREIGN COMMONWEALTH AND DEVELOPMENT OFFICE | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1A 2AH | | 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 | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | TROPICAL HEALTH CONSULTING | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 75 - Administration, defence and social security services ### Codes - 75211200 - Foreign economic-aid-related services ## Release History - 15 Feb 2024 at 15:58 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0a7c5859-142c-457a-97df-cfa7204b2007 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0a7c5859-142c-457a-97df-cfa7204b2007 15th February 2024 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/e531dee5-2b4c-4222-9935-ee19bfc5a729 n/a ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
