Evaluation, Economic and Social Impact Consultant

INTRODUCTION

St. Osyth Priory and Parish Trust is currently in the Development Phase of a project funded by a grant from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, which will focus on the redevelopment of the Tithe Barn and Old Dairy into hireable event and community spaces.

St. Osyth Priory and Parish Trust seeks to appoint a suitably qualified and highly experienced Evaluation, Economic, and Social Impact Consultant to work on the Development and Delivery Phases (RIBA 1 to RIBA 7) of this project aspect. This is a Heritage Enterprise project, and the evaluation needs to encompass the needs of this grant programme.

This ITT outlines the background to the project, the tender process, timescales, and management arrangements.

There is, however, no guarantee that Delivery Phase services will be required, as this is contingent upon successful funding, and bidders should take this into consideration.

Development Phase Budget: £25,000

Delivery Phase Budget: £35,000 (Subject to successful funding)

Role, Scope and Responsibilities

The Evaluation, Economic and Social Impact Consultant will be required to work with the Project Team to coordinate the evaluation of all aspects of the project and write the final Evaluation plan in line with The National Lottery Heritage Fund guidelines. Helping us to improve as we progress will be as crucial as compiling the final report. We expect the evaluation consultant to work closely with us throughout the project's duration.

The consultant will be tasked with capturing data related to the Economic and Social Impact. We would also like the project's framework to be consistent with HM Treasury's 'Green Book', 'Magenta Book' and The National Lottery Heritage Fund's good practice guidance.

This work will be split into two phases:

• Development Phase:
• opreparation of an evaluation framework
• oAn evaluation of the Development Phase
• Delivery Phase:
• oEvaluation of the Delivery Phase

The final report should include detailed recommendations for the project's legacy.
