Description

***THIS IS NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION**** This contract has been awarded against Crown Commercial Services Research Marketplace DPS. UKRI is committed to rigorous evaluation of key programmes and the SPF programmes are a particular focus. The aim of the externally commissioned evaluation is to establish to what extent it has achieved its 3 objectives and to what extent the findings have, will have, or are likely to have on the UK economy and society at large. In order to achieve the stated programme objectives it is essential that it establishes a cohesive, collaborative and highly effective inter-disciplinary research community comprising of researchers, policy makers, industry and the wider stakeholder community. Secondly, the programme must achieve consensus among its participants and the wider research community on the accurate and fair assessment of potential GGR solutions, the evidence for any of approaches that are unlikely to meet the UK GGR target or are ethically non-viable, and the identification of proceedable GGR approaches. For each proceedable option the programme must develop full recommendations on the ethical, cultural, political and social considerations needed to ensure its acceptance, and provide a full economic assessment for its potential impact using accounting methods that, as a result of the programme, have been accepted by the scientific and stakeholder communities. Finally, in order to achieve its objectives, the programme must contribute towards the development of value systems and policy frameworks, including governmental, that supports and promotes the progression of GGR technologies into industry, paving the way for commercial uptake and adoption. It is anticipated that through InnovateUK activities (Objective 3) industries will be in the pipeline ready to adopt these approaches in the lifetime of the programme or imminently after its end.
