This is an opportunity to work with the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (the Ministry) on an evaluation that will provide evidence to inform future immigration policy and operational settings, with a focus on improving the long-term labour market outcomes of temporary and permanent migrants who come to New Zealand under labour market-focused policies, and improving the impact of migration on the New Zealand labour market.
What we need:
A credible supplier to provide a quote for evaluation services that contribute to the evaluation of the 2016 and 2017 changes made by the Government to the labour market migration policies.
An evaluation framework for the policy changes was developed in October 2017 and an evaluation will commence in mid-2018.
What we don’t want:
 We don’t want wholesale development of an entirely new outcome measurement framework.
 We don’t want evaluation components delivered that are intended for delivery by the Ministry’s Research and Evaluation Team except by negotiation with the Ministry.
What’s important to us:
The Ministry is looking for credible suppliers who have the capability and experience to work in collaboration with the Ministry to provide an evaluation of the policy changes. They need to have a good track record in both qualitative and quantitative research, analysis and reporting, with proven experience of working with Government agencies.
Why should you bid?
This is an opportunity to invest in the future of New Zealand by contributing to the wider evidence based on how immigration settings affect migration and labour market outcomes. You will be providing evidence that will inform future immigration policy and operational settings with a focus on improving the long-term labour market outcomes of temporary and permanent migrants who come to New Zealand under labour market-focused policies, and improving the impact of migration on the New Zealand labour market.
A bit about us
The Ministry’s purpose is to grow New Zealand for all. The Ministry contributes to the Government’s collective priorities by implementing the portfolio priorities of our Ministers. As an integral part of the Ministry, Immigration New Zealand (INZ) is responsible for bringing the best people to New Zealand to enhance New Zealand’s social and economic outcomes. Attracting and retaining migrants with the right skills is vital to New Zealand’s prosperity, and migrants add to the gross domestic product of New Zealand.
