Summary of the contracting process

The Crown Commercial Service is currently managing the Research Marketplace Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) which is set to operate over a period of forty-eight months. Suppliers are invited to submit a 'Request to Participate' specifically for providing research services that encompass various topics, methods, participant groups, and locations. The initial deadline for requests to participate was set for 17:00 on 16 February 2018; however, the DPS remains accessible for participation requests from any supplier throughout its operational duration. The procurement method utilised for this process is selective, following a restricted procedure which exceeds the threshold for competitive bids. The total estimated value of this contract is £170 million in GBP.

This opportunity is particularly conducive to fostering business growth in the market research sector. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to apply, given the DPS's inclusive nature, which does not guarantee minimum expenditure or exclusivity. Businesses with expertise in market and economic research, polling, and statistics would be well-suited to compete, enhancing their visibility and potential contract acquisition through this dynamic and flexible procurement framework.
