## Description

\*\*\*\*\* THIS IS AN AWARD NOTICE, NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION \*\*\*\*\* This procurement is being concluded following a mini competition under the RM6018 CCS Research Marketplace DPS Brief Description of Requirement: The overarching aim of the project is to evaluate the impact of both Help to Grow programmes on participant productivity \(both schemes\) and turnover \(Help to Grow Management only\) using randomised encouragement design and thereby to ultimately enable an evaluation of the value for money of the programmes\. The project aim covered within this brief is to design and run a robust and suitable RED experiment to encourage a random selection of eligible businesses to apply to the programmes with the overarching aim central to the design\. Given the long lag time expected for changes to business productivity and turnover \(around three to seven years\) the undertaking of the long-term value for money and impact evaluation will not be covered in this contract\.
