Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Business Energy and Industrial Strategy seeking services for an "Electric Vehicle Driver Charging Survey" to address the rapidly growing UK electric vehicle market. The tender was initiated on 27th January 2022 and has an award status confirmed on 27th January 2022, with a contract period ending on 31st March 2022. With a total contract value of £50,000, this selective procurement method involved a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, aimed at researching drivers' attitudes and behaviours towards electric vehicles.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs), particularly those specialising in research services related to electric vehicles and sustainable transport. Given the rising demand for electric vehicles driven by legislative changes, businesses involved in environmental research, data analytics, and market studies would be well-suited to compete for similar future tenders in this evolving industry.

Notice Title

Electric Vehicle Driver Charging Survey

Notice Description

The UK electric vehicle (EV) market is growing at pace. In January 2021, 6,260 new battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and 6,124 new plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) were registered in the UK, representing a 54% and 28% increase in sales relative to the same month the previous year. There are now more than 500,000 plug-in vehicles on the road as of the end of April 2021 and we expect demand to continue to grow rapidly in response to the Government's announcement to end the sale of new petrol and diesel cars and vans by 2030, with all vehicles being required to have a significant zero emissions capability (e.g. plug-in and full hybrids) from 2030 and be 100% zero emissions from 2035. We are procuring this research to fill evidence gaps around attitudes and behaviour of current EV drivers. We will use this evidence as a benchmark to measure and isolate the impact of the regulations through a 5-year impact evaluation.
