This procurement process, categorised under services, is unfolding in Glasgow, Scotland. The tender period is set to close on 3rd February 2021 at 17:00 GMT, with submission occurring electronically. The project has a budget of £41,666.67 and aims to assess the early learning and impacts of three Local House Projects, focusing on relationship-based practice within the care system. This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses involved in social research, evaluation, and project management, especially those with experience in working with young people or in relationship-based frameworks. Companies that excel in delivering creative outputs or collaborative projects will be particularly well-suited for this tender. Engaging in this procurement could enhance their profile and expand their portfolio through impactful contributions to the care system in Scotland. ## Notice The Trust believes that investing directly in young people and placing them at the heart of all efforts to transform the care system is vital if we are to achieve lasting change. The purpose of this evaluation is to explore the early learning and impact of three Local House Projects in Scotland. We are interested in examining these projects within the context of relationship-based practice. The evaluation will consist of two main elements: a relationship-based processes evaluation, and an impact evaluation. The impact evaluation element will also include working in collaboration with young people in each of the three Local Projects to produce a creative output for each area focused on the young people's experience of engaging in the project. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The evaluation project will have two distinct but interrelated parts: 1) Relationship-based processes evaluation, which will explore how processes can be underpinned by a relational, rather than transactional, approach. It will report on whether and how relationship-based processes within LHPs have: been established; improved the experiences of young people; increased and improved engagement with Corporate Parents; strengthened understanding of how this work fits with local strategy; and enabled and/or removed barriers to the successful running of Local House Projects. 2) Impact evaluation, which will explore the impact of the Local House Projects in terms of a) early outcomes for young people; and b) strengthened relationship-based practice. In addition to reporting on outcomes and impact for young people, this should include examples of the impact of groupwork and co-production, impact on practice, and impact on relationships. This element will also include working in collaboration with young people in each of the three Local Projects to produce a creative output. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV400774 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 30 Nov 2020 | | Submission deadline | 3 Feb 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £41,666 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LIFE CHANGES TRUST | | Locality | GLASGOW | | Post town | Glasgow | | Postcode | G1 9BW | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM3 West Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM32 Glasgow City | | Local authority | Glasgow City | | Electoral ward | Anderston/City/Yorkhill | | Westminster constituency | Glasgow North East | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 73110000 - Research services - 79315000 - Social research services - 79419000 - Evaluation consultancy services ## Release History - 30 Nov 2020 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV400774 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=NOV400774&idx=1 30th November 2020 - DfE Final House Project Evaluation - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=NOV400774&idx=2 30th November 2020 - DfE Pilot House Project Evaluation - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=NOV400774&idx=3 30th November 2020 - The National House Project Offer Years 1-2 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=NOV400774&idx=4 30th November 2020 - The National House Project Offer Year 3 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=NOV400774&idx=5 30th November 2020 - Invitation to tender: Evaluation of the Life Changes Trust's Award to Local House Projects - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV400774 Invitation to tender: Evaluation of the Life Changes Trust's Award to Local House Projects - The Trust believes that investing directly in young people and placing them at the heart of all efforts to transform the care system is vital if we are to achieve lasting change.
