two.2.4) Description of the procurement
BEIS places significance importance on having high quality monitoring and evaluation (M&E) activity across the Department.
BEIS has created a M&E hub to oversee and support M&E across BEIS alongside a number of M&E experts/teams that are embedded alongside policy teams. BEIS's M&E Framework outlines BEIS' vision for comprehensive, proportionate, good quality monitoring and evaluation across the department and its partner organisations. The aims of this contract contribute to the delivery of that vision.
To support the work of the M&E hub, it is necessary for teams across BEIS to have access to specialist M&E expertise at various points in the project lifecycle. This detailed support is beyond the resources of the M&E Hub itself.
The M&E Hub have identified that the best solution for this is for the M&E hub to commission, and own, a call-off contract which BEIS teams can access. This would allow BEIS teams to efficiently commission expert support without needing to go through an external commissioning process, while also ensuring that they are supported in this area by working with a contractor who has expertise in delivering these tasks. This contract is not intended to replace the stand-alone commissioning of contracts to deliver policy evaluations.
