Description

You are invited to submit a proposal to undertake an evaluation of the North of Tyne Digital Adoption Programme (known as "Digital Pathfinders"). The successful organisation or consultant (the 'evaluator') will work with Digital Catapult North East Tees Valley (NETV) to achieve the outcomes requested in this specification. The overall aim of the evaluation is to assess the progress and impact of Digital Pathfinders and make recommendations for the development of support delivery. The programme of evaluation will take place in two stages, a formative assessment and summative assessment. There are several key areas that must be considered throughout the evaluation process to continuously improve and enhance the service delivery to customers. The timescale for this work is ongoing between December 2022 and March 2024. Background Digital Pathfinders helps SMEs, charities and social enterprises across Newcastle, Northumberland and North Tyneside become more successful and resilient by adopting digital technology. Digital Pathfinders helps organisations mitigate the risk of adopting new technologies, equipping them with the understanding of potential investment required for relevant digital solutions. Digital Pathfinders is delivered in partnership with Digital Catapult North East Tees Valley, Generator and VONNE. The £2million programme is part-funded by Digital Catapult and North of Tyne Combined Authority (NTCA), as part of the North of Tyne Digital Growth and Innovation Programme.
