Summary of the contracting process

The British Tourist Authority, trading as VisitBritain, has completed a public tender process for the "Consumer Sentiment Tracker Tender," aimed at analysing shifts in consumer sentiment regarding short breaks and holidays in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically research services, and was awarded following an open procedure below the threshold value of £39,990. The contract will run from 8th March 2021 to 10th September 2021, with the tender deadline having passed on 9th February 2021. The work is primarily based in London, UK.

Engaging in this kind of research is essential for understanding market dynamics as the tourism industry adjusts post-pandemic.

Notice Title

GB-London: BTA1365 - Consumer Sentiment Tracker Tender

Notice Description

Given the current situation with Covid 19, and the impact on the tourism industry, VisitBritain/VisitEngland are interested in understanding consumer sentiment towards overnight short breaks, holidays and associated activities. As the situation is constantly changing, with restrictions and guidance affecting people's attitudes and behaviours towards trip-taking that were once routine and commonplace, the requirement is to track these shifts in sentiment on a fortnightly basis over the course of 13 waves. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
