Our working assumption is that our commission will have two separate workpackages: Work Package 1: Economic Advice. Advice on the economic evaluation of the new institution, most likely using a Value for Investment (VfI) approach Work Package 2: Main Transformation Evaluation. Independent, theory based evaluation of the transformation of Government Skills to the National School Work Package 1 is a small-scale piece of work to provide assurance that the initial steps of a proposed economic evaluation using the VFI approach (being conducted internally) have been completed in line with best practice, and support setting appropriate measures to allow robust judgements for The National School's performance against each of the Es. Work Package 1 will require suppliers to have experience of working on evaluations using the VFI approach. Work Package 2 is a substantial piece of work to provide evidence of how well the National School is delivering against transformation commitments. This Work Package requires a theory based approach to reviewing implementation (assessing activities and outputs in the theory of change) and providing evidence on early indicators of value from users, to support the VfI approach in Work Package 1. The supplier will provide interim findings and a full report in the initial term. Work Package 2 will require suppliers to have high-quality theory-based evaluation expertise, including evaluating genuinely complex strategic interventions, and economic evaluation to continue the VfI approach. We will also expect suppliers to have strong experience of conducting evaluations in complex Civil Service or public sector settings ## Lots (2) ### Lot 1: Work Package 1: Economic Advice - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 73110000 - **Delivery regions:** UK - **Description:** To be procured through GCA's Research and Insights (RM6126) Framework ### Lot 2: Work Package 2: Main Transformation Evaluation. - **Lot id:** `2` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 73110000 - **Delivery regions:** UK - **Description:** To be procured through GCA's Research & Insights (RM6126) Framework. ## Provenance and Official Sources - **Official Notice:** [Find a Tender notice](/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.find-tender.service.gov.uk%2FNotice%2F105230-2026) - **Last Source Update:** 2026-11-05T13:57:17.000Z - **This document generated:** 2026-11-06T10:40:10.800Z - **Machine API:** https://tenderline.uk/api/public/tenders/ocds-h6vhtk-07b550
