## About this tender

This contract will build on other research we commissioned last year, specifically:

- Research with grant holders and funding staff about their experiences of and aspirations for monitoring and evaluation. This identified a number of improvements (both in terms of processes and guidance) which are now being developed.
- Research with other funders to understand how they support their grant holders around data and evidence. This identified potential approaches to support that the Fund could take.
- Research to map all of the existing outcomes frameworks and measures/scales that are relevant for VCSE sector organisations

We will provide the findings from these pieces of research to the successful bidder.

This research will fill a specific insight gap about:

- the broad data and evidence needs of the VCSE sector
- what support different organisations need around data and evidence to meet their organisational goals
- how we should prioritise our resources to support this.
