This tender, titled "HLF HERITAGE GRANTS SF4 REVIEW", focuses on projects that span across the UK's heritage, involving conservation and community initiatives. The procurement process is currently in the active tender stage, with the submission deadline set for 10th October 2018. The total contract value is £25,000, and it falls under the research consultancy services category, with delivery expected to commence from 15th October 2018 and continue until 8th March 2019. This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses specialising in research consultancy services, particularly those with experience in the heritage and cultural sectors. Firms capable of conducting comprehensive evaluations and assessments will find this tender appealing, as it allows for contributions to impactful projects that enhance community engagement and heritage conservation. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, leveraging this tender as a gateway to grow their presence in the public sector by supporting the evaluation of critical heritage initiatives. ## Notice HLF invests in the full breadth of the UK's heritage, and through our funding we aim to make a lasting difference for heritage and people. This is reflected in the outcomes for heritage, people and communities that underpin our grant-making. Heritage Grants is HLF's largest open programme, and funds projects related to any part of the national, regional, or local heritage of the UK - ranging from the conservation of historic buildings, to museum redevelopments, natural heritage and landscape schemes, and community projects. We wish to conduct an evaluation of the completed Heritage Grants projects funded under HLF's 4th Strategic Framework (SF4), which began in April 2013 (see: https://www.hlf.org.uk/lasting-difference-heritage-and-people-our-strategy-2013-2018). Under SF4 HLF has awarded over PS1.26bn to 662 Heritage Grants, ranging in size from PS50,000 to almost PS20m. Of these 662 projects, 66 are now complete. Organisations awarded funding under SF4 were required to submit a self-evaluation of their project work upon completion of the project. When they apply for a grant, we ask applicants to tell us the 'story' of their project, by explaining: * Why they want to do their project - the need or opportunity that exists. * What they will do - both capital works and activities. * What difference the project will make for heritage and for people. In their evaluation, we ask grantees to repeat this exercise, comparing what they hoped or expected their project to achieve with what actually happened. HLF does not prescribe how grantees should carry out their evaluation, though we do outline various evaluation tools in our Evaluation Guidance. This study will involve a comprehensive review of the self-evaluation reports and the outcomes achieved by 50-60 Heritage Grants projects completed as of September 2018, and which were funded under SF4.
