Evaluation Services – Intermediate-Level Consultant

The contract is for intermediate-level evaluation services under the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of the Government of Canada, targeting professionals who will deliver comprehensive evaluation support including data analysis, stakeholder interviews, development of performance indicators, and active contribution to final evaluation reports. The scope requires a strong ability to synthesize complex information, engage with diverse stakeholders, and produce actionable insights aligned with federal evaluation standards. Work is to be performed within the National Capital Region, reflecting the centralized nature of the agency’s operations and the need for in-person collaboration where necessary. The opportunity is structured as a subcontract, with a response deadline of May 29, 2026, and was posted on May 11, 2026, indicating a relatively short window for interested parties to prepare and submit proposals. The North American Industry Classification System code 541618 confirms the focus on other scientific and technical consulting services, underscoring the specialized nature of the work. Although no set-aside provisions or specific organizational type restrictions are noted, applicants must demonstrate proven experience in evaluation methodologies and a clear understanding of the federal government’s expectations for evidence-based decision-making. The tender is accessible through the CanadaBuys portal, and there is no designated point of contact listed, suggesting proposals should follow standard submission protocols without direct inquiry.
