This procurement initiative falls under the industry category of social research services, with a primary focus on supporting in-house quantitative exercises to enhance campaign development and public insight gathering on key government priorities. The procurement was conducted through a selective method, specifically a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. This contract, valued at £300,000, spans from 1st August 2025 to 31st July 2028, covering various delivery locations including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and globally. The contract was awarded to Thinks Insight and Strategy (Britain Thinks) Ltd, a medium-sized enterprise, with the award announced on 13th August 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in quantitative research and social research services. Enterprises capable of providing comprehensive survey-to-analysis services that inform campaign strategies and public insights are ideally positioned to benefit from such procurement processes. Furthermore, the selective procurement method implies that businesses listed within relevant dynamic purchasing systems have a competitive advantage. The involvement of an SME like Thinks Insight and Strategy (Britain Thinks) Ltd in this project highlights the MoJ's emphasis on engaging small and medium-sized enterprises, thus providing a fertile landscape for similar businesses to pursue growth through governmental contracts.
