The contract period began on 12 June 2026 and is set to conclude on 12 June 2027. The geographical scope for the delivery of services includes the United Kingdom and extends to British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, and other global locations. The total value of the contract is £1,200,000, with an initial award amount of £300,000. The award status is active, as of 29 May 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in research, development, and consultancy services, particularly those capable of handling extensive survey projects and data management over various international regions. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) may find this contract particularly appealing due to the preference given to these sectors. The Department for Business and Trade, with its central location in London, aims to use this survey to gather key data that could influence regulatory adjustments, offering potential continued cooperation for companies able to provide high-quality insights and innovative data solutions.
