This tender is classified under accounting and auditing services and business management consultancy, with a contract value of £22,500 GBP. The procurement method adopted is an open procedure, and the tender period concluded on 19th July 2021, whereas the contract is scheduled to commence on 1st September 2021 and run through to 30th June 2023. The assessment aims to engage actively with beneficiaries and project teams to evaluate overall impact and lessons learned. This contract presents an excellent opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary/community sector enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in consultancy, auditing, or project evaluation services. Businesses well-versed in providing impact assessments and evaluations would be particularly suited to compete for this contract. Engaging in this process could enhance their profiles and open avenues for further collaborations within the public sector, leveraging the project's outcomes to inform future contracts. ## Notice We are looking for a consultant or organisation to carry out a Summative Assessment to satisfy ERDF compliance to be completed by the end of June 2023. The Summative Assessment required by our funders should be underpinned by a programme of active and planned engagement with project beneficiaries and the project team. This will culminate in a final evaluation on conclusion of the project which will focus on assessing overall impact and lessons learned which might inform the design of future projects. A summative assessment is a specific requirement of our funders and must be completed by the end of June 2023. It will be impact based and undertaken according to the funder's common framework and methodology, a link to which is included in this specification.
