What the buyer wants
Evaluation services for the METIUS programme to assess the impact of AI-enhanced evidence synthesis on policymaking and generate insights for future research investment design and delivery.
The METIUS programme is a new infrastructure investment with a total UK funding allocation of £14.5 million.

METIUS is co-funded by the Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade (BIST), the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) and forms part of the UKRI Creating Opportunities and Improving Outcomes strategic theme. The investment started on 1 October 2025 and will run for five years.

In addition, the evaluation will generate actionable insights to inform the design and delivery of future research inve
