## Summary

The procurement process involves the Foreign & Commonwealth Office seeking tenders for the "Prosperity Fund Evaluation and Learning Contract" aimed at fostering economic growth in developing countries. With a total contract value of £23,957,497, this open tender represents a significant investment in improving business climates and addressing challenges in middle-income countries. The tender was published on 26th February 2018, marking the formal initiation of the procurement stage, and the associated contract is set to commence on 4th September 2018 and conclude on 30th November 2018.

This contract provides substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in services related to law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing, and security. Companies that can demonstrate expertise in monitoring and evaluation frameworks, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), would be well-suited to compete. Engaging in this tender could enhance the capacity of businesses to contribute to sustainable development while potentially reducing poverty in targeted regions.

## Notice

In order to help promote economic growth in developing countries the government has created a new Prosperity Fund worth PS1.3 billion over the next five years. Its priorities will include improving the business climate, competitiveness and operation of markets, energy and financial sector reform, and increasing the ability of governments to tackle corruption. These reforms will drive sustainable development and will aim to contribute to a reduction in poverty in developing countries. They will also create opportunities for international business, including UK companies. Around two thirds of the world's poor live in middle income countries. These countries are able to finance their own development, but face considerable challenges such as rapid urbanisation, climate change and high and persistent inequality which can lower long-term growth prospects. The Prosperity Fund will support the broad-based and inclusive growth needed for poverty reduction and to make development sustainable. In order to satisfy the Treasury requirement to develop a robust monitoring and evaluation framework the Fund has tendered three central contracts to deliver these products and services. This mirrors a similar contract model developed by the International Climate Fund to deliver monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) services and products across its funding streams.
