    Brief

    York St John University is seeking specialist support to conduct an independent assessment of how their research has influenced domestic and international policy frameworks. The assessment will evaluate the social, health, educational, and economic impacts resulting from the adoption and implementation of the University's research-informed policies. This is a pre-market engagement exercise to gather information about best practices, methodologies, delivery approaches, and costs before issuing a formal tender. The successful partner will review policy documents and research outputs, develop and apply assessment methodologies, evaluate policy outcomes, conduct stakeholder engagement where needed, and produce a comprehensive independent report. The University is particularly interested in organizations with proven experience in policy impact assessment within UK and European policy environments and expertise in evaluating university-led research influence. Interested suppliers should submit written responses addressing relevant experience, proposed methodology, delivery approach, team expertise, indicative pricing, and market feedback by email to procurement@yorksj.ac.uk with the subject line 'PME Response - Policy Impact Assessment'. This engagement is voluntary and non-binding and will not influence any future procurement evaluation.
