We are inviting tenders from suitably qualified and experienced individuals/organisations to support the partnership in monitoring and evaluating the scheme over the coming four and a half years.

The appointed consultant will subject the scheme to external scrutiny over this period, while also working closely with the partnership to help us to integrate monitoring of project outputs and outcomes into our project management system; and develop our legacy plan. This process will enable us to:

• Demonstrate to the Heritage Lottery Fund, to other funders, to partner organisations and other interested parties what is being achieved;
• Provide us with a mechanism that will inform and support scheme management and scheme governance;
• Look forward as well as backward – in particular helping us to plan project and scheme legacy;
• Help the partnership to maximise what it (and others) learn from delivery of the Landscape Partnership Scheme.

The successful bidder will work with both the core LPS team and individual project leads to ensure all our monitoring and evaluation activities are fit for purpose.

Deadline extended to 5pm Thursday 27 July. Download the SWP LPS – Monitoring & Evaluation Brief and terms & conditions.
