Description

Actual CPV code is '75211200 Foreign Economic-Aid-Related Services'.

DFID and the Nike Foundation are seeking a Supplier (an individual organisation or consortium) to implement the independent M&E for the SPRING Initiative - the 'M&E partner'.

Role of M&E

Owing to (i) the weak evidence base around interventions that work at scale and sustainably to increase girls' access to assets, and (ii) the experimental nature of this initiative, it is critical to learn from both success and failure and to develop a body of evidence on interventions that advance girls' asset ownership. This body of evidence will inform grantees on how/when to pivot their ventures, whilst helping stakeholders, such as policy-makers, practitioners, donors, businesses, investors, incubator/accelerator designers and civil society organizations to understand the value of and most effective approaches to developing assets for girls .

This improvement in the evidence base should attract new donor and government investment and importantly, stimulate private sector investment to improve girls' access to and retention of economic assets.

The M&E will assess the (i) business performance and (ii) impact of individual grantee ventures, alongside the (iii) effectiveness of the overall programme. Through the effective packaging, communication and dissemination of the evidence and lessons generated, both 'successes' and 'failures', in ways that are compelling and - most importantly - actionable for our varying audiences, this evidence base will aim to deliver significant development impact.
