Framework contract - Implementation of the European Radioisotope Valley Initiative (ERVI)
As part of the SAMIRA action plan, the Commission carried out exploratory work on ERVI in 2022-2025. This work included a feasibility study, a stakeholder consultation, inputs from the ERVI Steering Group and Stakeholder Forum, and several expert workshops. This work has been formally supported by Member States and the civil society. Furthermore, the REPowerEU Roadmap adopted by the Commission last May directed ERVI to strengthen EU production capacities, improve the resilience of the supply chain and reduce dependency on foreign suppliers, in particular Russia, focusing on production of metallic HALEU and stable isotopes. In order to advance the implementation of ERVI, the Commission, Member States and stakeholders should pursue mid-term and long-term actions grouped in five pillars: • Investment in innovative production facilities • Research and innovation • Market monitoring and forecasting • Strategic international partnerships • Evolution of the regulatory framework. Furthermore, the Commission will build a coordination mechanism to ensure coherence between these pillars as they advance over time. The objective of this contract will be to ensure technical, scientific, administrative and logistical support to DG ENER for the implementation of the ERVI activities. - ELIKA MESOGEIAKES ILEKTRIKES DIASYNDESEIS MONOPROSOPI ANONYMI ETAIREIA (ELICA MEDITERRANEAN ELECTRICAL INTERCONNECTION SINGLE-MEMBER S.A.)MAROUSSI, ATTICADeadline: Aug 01

Leading Healthcare Providers (LHP) Skillnet is seeking to partner with a suitably qualified organisation to undertake an independent longitudinal impact and evaluation study of the Nursing Home Leadership Education and Development (NH-LEAD) Initiative. Funded by the Department of Health, the NH-LEAD Initiative has been established to strengthen leadership, governance and management capability across Ireland's nursing home sector through the provision of accredited postgraduate education. The purpose of this procurement is to appoint an experienced research organisation to design and deliver a comprehensive mixed-methods evaluation of the initiative over its duration. The successful tenderer will be required to develop an evaluation framework and undertake a longitudinal study incorporating quantitative and qualitative research methods, including surveys, interviews, focus groups, stakeholder consultation, documentary review and other appropriate evaluation approaches. The evaluation should assess the implementation, effectiveness and impact of the initiative at learner, organisational and sectoral levels, providing robust evidence to inform future policy, programme development and investment in leadership education within the long-term residential care sector. Established in January 2008, Leading Healthcare Providers (LHP) Skillnet is a not-for-profit Learning Network co-funded by Skillnet Ireland and our member companies. Skillnet Ireland is funded through the National Training Fund by the Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science.

The study should examine the extent to which the initiative strengthens leadership capability, supports improvements in governance, quality improvement and regulatory preparedness, and contributes to improved organisational performance, workforce capability and resident outcomes within nursing homes. The evaluation should also identify barriers and enablers to successful implementation and provide practical recommendations to support the future development of the initiative. - Serbian Railway Infrastructure JSCBelgradeDeadline: Sep 24

Also granting opinions, reports and other relevant consents or approvals that derive from the commitments of the SPA.

The Advisor is required to prepare and deliver periodical reports and opinions regarding the development of the Project on a quarterly basis. The Advisor will assist with specialized experience and expertise on all complex technical issues related to the monitoring of the timely implementation and execution of the Integrated Development Plan during the second five-year period of the Investment Obligation, and will therefore be asked to provide a substantiated and justified opinion for any possible deviations and/or delays, following relevant communication exchanges and processes with all parties directly involved.

Econometric Study on the implementation and performance of the EFSD+ Open Access Window in ENEST-MENA countries and options for MFF 2028-2034
The finality of the study is to appraise the market value, relevance, and effectiveness of IFI financial products paid via EFSD/EFSD+ contracts, and their impact compared to a no-EU intervention scenario. The main differences between this study and traditional FwC studies consists in: 1) Collecting evidence of the legal and financial impact that EFSD/EFSD+ contracts have on IFIs’ contracts with their clients and partner financial intermediaries (rather than collecting opinions that people with a direct stake in these contracts have of such impact); 2) Reliance on independently collected technical financial data, to be further elaborated via inferential statistics (rather than reliance on anecdotal surveys / interviews); 3) Assessing these contracts by benchmarking the financial products on which they are based against similar financial products — debt, guarantee and equity products — financed or managed by other governmental, no-profit or for-profit private market players (rather than benchmarking against financial products contained in other EU contracts, or no benchmarking at all); 4) Contracting consultants normally dealing with the banking and non-banking financial sectors (rather than consultants normally dealing with the Official Development Assistance — ODA — sector). This would mark a clean departure from EC studies that have traditionally focused on contract analysis by way of desk reviews (with an implicit comparison to other EU contracts and FwC studies on these EU contracts) and interviews / surveys among directly interested parties (including staff of the Contracting Authority; staff of IFIs / PFIs or other EU-contracted Parties and; Direct/Indirect Beneficiaries). Given the originality of the study (of a technical and comparative nature, with substantial inputs expected from the contracted party already in the study design phase); the type of expertise required (statistical tools applied to finance and microeconomics) and; the expected costs (likely EUR 700 K), the best option to contract such study would be through the “competitive dialogue” procedure regulated by Art. 2.6.7 PRAG. “In the case of particularly complex contracts, where the contracting authority considers that neither direct use of the open procedure nor the arrangements governing the restricted procedure will result in the best value for money, it may use the competitive dialogue. A contract is considered to be ‘particularly complex’ if the contracting authority is objectively unable either to specify the technical means of satisfying its needs or objectives or to specify the legal or financial makeup of the project”. The contract will target financial consultancy companies specializing on financial instruments, financial intermediaries and financial market data. - Medite Europe DACClonmelDeadline: Aug 18
