Description

The University frequently responds to funding calls from the UK Government including Industrial Strategy Challenge Funds; Regional and Local Growth Funds; and devolved funds to the Region or North of Tyne. As part of the application process, certain assessments are required to be undertaken, and plans produced.

We are establishing a pool of consultants to undertake tasks to assist Newcastle University in preparing applications for funding. The standard by which the applications are assessed is "HM Treasury The Green Book - Appraisal and Evaluation in Central Government", and we would anticipate any consultant to be experienced with this standard and to demonstrate their track record in developing business cases and their component parts and requirements and producing reports to that standard.
