In plain English

Healthcare Improvement Scotland wants an outside organisation to independently evaluate the Scottish Approach to Change, a programme for improving NHS services. The provider would design and run the evaluation, checking how the programme is being put into practice, what difference it is making, and whether it still follows its principles of openness, collaboration and responding to feedback.

What the buyer wants

• Design a robust, independent evaluation plan covering how the programme is implemented and what impact it has • Deliver objective challenge, learning and assurance reports that help the programme improve and show whether its core principles are being upheld • Gather and analyse evidence from people involved in the programme, and present findings clearly to NHS leaders and the programme team

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

The main barrier is proven evaluation expertise in health or public sector transformation, since the buyer will expect named experienced evaluators and relevant past projects, which a very new or generalist business would struggle to show.

How to bid

This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
