## Description

\*\*\*\*\* THIS IS AN AWARD NOTICE, NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION \*\*\*\*\* This procurement is being concluded following a mini competition under the CCS DPS, RM6126 Research & insights Framework\. The Unlocking Space for Business \(USB\) is a new project seeking to drive greater long-term adoption of satellite-derived data, applications, and services across commercial 'end-users', i\.e\., non-space private sector companies operating in the UK\. The project is primarily a pilot project that if successful will inform a larger project beyond the 2025 Spending Review\. The pilot will implement a number of end-user focused initiatives related to education, engagement, capability development and operational deployment \(grant funding\)\. As the USB is a pilot for a larger project it will be critical to effectively capture learnings and ensure clear feedback loops\. This tender is seeking a Monitoring and Evaluation \(M&E\) partner to undertake primary and secondary research, interviews, and site visits to individual companies and other stakeholders\.
