Whether that is in competition, training or spectating, we are working for everyone who loves sport. In the UK, we make sure sports bodies comply with the World Anti-Doping Code through implementation and management of the UK's National Anti-Doping Policy. Our functions include: • a prevention through education programme • intelligence-led athlete testing across more than 40 Olympic, Paralympic and professional sports • investigations and results management authority for the determination of Anti-Doping Rule Violations (ADRVs) Created in December 2009, UKAD is a Non-Departmental Public Body (NDPB) which is accountable to Parliament through the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). Further information can be found on our website. Background to our requirement. As per best practice, and as set out in the Code for Sports Governance, the UKAD Board and its Committees undertake an annual effectiveness review. Historically this has been externally facilitated on a triennial basis. UKAD last commissioned an external Board Effectiveness Review (BER) in 2022 and subsequently undertook internal reviews in 2023 and 2024. UKAD wishes to appoint a partner organisation which can undertake a Board Effectiveness Review which follows the guidance produced by the Cabinet Office and follows the principles set out in the Corporate governance in central government departments: code of good practice, HM Treasury. Our requirement Good practice in respect of corporate governance requires that boards assess their effectiveness regularly and the UKAD Board is committed to doing so on an annual basis. Responsibility for ensuring this takes place has been delegated to the People Committee. On behalf of the Chair, UKAD is looking to appoint an external advisor to deliver a formal and rigorous evaluation of the effectiveness and performance of the board and its committees. The purpose of the review is to identify where processes, interactions and decision-taking are working well, and provide supportive recommendations where matters can be improved. In the Corporate governance in central government departments: code of good practice, HM Treasury and Cabinet Office Guidance (Chapter 4) sets out expectations including a formal and rigorous annual evaluation of the board's performance, that of its committees and of individual board members. In support of this, the Cabinet Office has produced specific guidance which follows the principles set out in the Code of Good Practice. It is therefore expected that the review will be undertaken in line with the following guidance (Appendix 1 - Board Effectiveness Reviews - principles and resources for ALBs and sponsoring departments): The overarching principles that should underpin the BER are: • A BER must provide a robust review of the board's effectiveness - including whether it has the structure, processes, ... > [Read full procurement scope and specification on Tenderline](https://tenderline.uk/tenders/board-effectiveness-review-ocds-h6vhtk-05a895) ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 79212110, 79212200 - **Delivery regions:** UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, UKK - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB ## Awards & Winning Suppliers (1) - **Award:** 1 (active) - Supplier(s): **REDQUADRANT LIMITED** - Supplier identifiers: `GB-FTS-28960` - Value: £24,300 † (exc.
