About
Natural England awarded a contract to Ipsos for the evaluation of the Natural Capital and Ecosystem Assessment (NCEA) programme, a £140m R&D initiative delivered over three years through terrestrial and marine portfolios.
The evaluation assessed the relevance, effectiveness (including cost-effectiveness), outcomes, and sustainability of the NCEA, going beyond output monitoring to identify mechanisms of change and the likelihood of long-term effects being sustained through the adoption of a natural capital approach.
It provided an accountability function for a significant investment of public funds and captured learning throughout the programme's lifetime to shape delivery.
The contract value was AUD 997,552.14.
