Notice Title

UKSBS - PS21272 - How Can Innovation Adoption and Diffusion Be Improved in the UK

Notice Description

***** THIS IS AN AWARD NOTICE, NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION ***** This procurement is being concluded following a mini competition under the CCS RM6018 Research Marketplace DPS. This project will provide the first detailed look at adoption and diffusion in the UK economy. There is a lot we do not know about adoption and diffusion in the UK. What we know is that diffusion has slowed, with the gap between those companies operating at the technological frontier and those operating inside this frontier having widened. To fix the UK diffusion engine, we must first understand it. This project is split into two sections. We expect all bidders to explain how they would answer the questions and sub-questions listed in section one. For section two, bidders should focus on where they can add most value. A bid that comprehensively addresses some sub-question from section two is preferred to a bid that poorly addresses all the sub-questions in section two.
