A Nation of Curious Minds - He Whenua Hihiri I Te Mahara – A National Strategic Plan for Science in Society (the Plan) was launched in July 2014. It is a 10 year plan to encourage and enable better engagement with science and technology across New Zealand society. The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) and the Ministry of Education (MoE), together with the Office of the Prime Minister’s Chief Science Advisor (OPMCSA), are overseeing the implementation of the Plan.

We released a Request for Information (RFI) earlier in the year. This RFI process provided useful information about possible approaches to the evaluation of the Plan. MBIE and MoE have taken account of the responses to this RFI, and the progress that has been made with the monitoring and evaluation of the Plan to prepare this Request for Quotations (RFQ).

We are looking for a supplier (or more than one supplier working collaboratively) that can provide the following:
• Part A: Demonstrating impact through surveying - Survey resources to ensure that we are able to systematically collect, consolidate, analyse and manage evidence of measured impact that build on the resources we have already developed; and
• Part B: Understanding what works and analysing performance information - A process evaluation to assess the effectiveness of administrative and operational elements of the projects, and analysis and reporting on the quantitative and qualitative data collected.
