## Summary

The Scottish Futures Trust Limited, based in Edinburgh, has initiated the procurement process for their "Inclusive Growth Evaluation: Data Collation & Analysis" project. The project focuses on assessing the impacts of infrastructure on inclusive growth using a refined monitoring and evaluation framework. This framework is being tested on 14 projects at various developmental stages. The awarded contract, which includes a term of one year with the possibility of up to three one-year renewals, has been secured through an open procedure. This procurement process caters to the services category and covers the UKM region. Key dates include the award date of 20th September 2024 and the contract signing date of 24th October 2024.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in data collation, infrastructure analytics, and impact evaluation. Companies with capabilities in these areas can leverage this contract to showcase their expertise and impact broader public policy initiatives on inclusive growth. The project suits well-equipped SMEs or larger specialised firms with experience in monitoring and evaluation frameworks, and those looking to establish or expand their footprint within the public sector's infrastructure evaluation landscape. The prospect of a long-term engagement spanning up to four years further enhances the business growth potential associated with this contract.

## Notice

SFT is continuing to implement an action research study into the inclusive growth impacts of infrastructure, using the monitoring & evaluation framework (M&EF) developed and refined since 2022 on behalf of SFT. Currently this M&EF is being tested with 14 projects each at varying stages of development. This testing involves establishing whether the anticipated impacts being measured can be evidenced over a period of time, thereby providing a clearer understanding of infrastructure's role in this important policy priority. We are seeking to secure support in implementing this study on a single-supplier framework basis for a possible period of 4 years (an initial term of one (1) year and up to three (3) additional one year renewal terms, renewed at SFT's discretion upon providing two (2) months' notice to the successful supplier).
