Dear colleagues,

Invitation to tender - Retention and Transfer Toolkit for Charities and Voluntary Organisations
As part of our ongoing work to support the development of charity archives, The National Archives seeks to commission a piece of work to produce a model records retention toolkit for use within charity and voluntary organisations. This will support these organisations in identifying records of enduring historic value whilst also complying with statutory and regulatory requirements, and lead to improvements within both records and archives management within the organisations themselves.
This project will consider and identify the wide landscape of operational, statutory and regulatory requirements affecting the voluntary sector, and result in a generic records retention schedule for use within charities. The schedule will be based on a breakdown of the functions and activities performed by the majority of these organisations (a business classification scheme), allowing for its use across this broad sector. Additionally, this toolkit will also help to identify records of enduring value requiring permanent preservation, and will suggest workflows to improve transfer of these records to archive services, including case studies.
The fee for this project is £10,000 inclusive of VAT and travel.
Questions of clarification should be received in writing by 21 September, and the deadline for tenders is 23 October 2018.
