    Brief

    The Evidence Centre is seeking a research and evaluation partner to support a new digital, data, innovation and AI (DDI/AI) learning initiative for Senior Civil Servants. The programme is currently in the design phase with rollout planned from January 2027. The evaluation will likely comprise multiple components including test-and-learn research, feasibility studies, process evaluation, and impact assessment, though the final scope may evolve. Successful suppliers must demonstrate: proven capability in rigorous training intervention evaluation; experience designing and delivering randomised controlled trials (RCTs) or quasi-experimental evaluations; expertise in test-and-learn programme design and delivery; practical experience evaluating programmes in complex public sector or Civil Service settings; and demonstrated knowledge in AI, data, digital, and innovation upskilling. The evaluation will help assess the effectiveness and implementation of this new learning offer for senior government leaders.
