Provision of a National Evaluation Framework

Through this tender process, HEE is seeking to secure a diverse, highly skilled, and agile framework of evaluators to ensure that its projects, programmes, interventions, and investments are (here after referred to as "delivery activities") measured, proportionate and outcomes are ready to be appropriately shared.

The National Evaluation Framework (herein after referred to as the 'NEF') will constitute a wide range of individuals and organisations (evaluators) with a broad range of expertise in evaluation processes and techniques - available to provide targeted support for the design and/or delivery of international, national, regional, and local workforce delivery activities across England.

The expertise of the NEF will be commissioned via a formal procurement framework such that it will allow for flexible and responsive contracting to deploy appropriate knowledge, skills, and evaluation expertise - as, when and where required.
