Summary of the contracting process

In this public procurement process, OFCOM, the communications regulator for the UK, has completed a tender titled "Post Usage Survey" for market research services, classified under the CPV code 79310000. The project involves conducting online and telephone surveys among UK adults, targeting a UK-wide audience, as well as specific demographic groups such as non-internet users. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with the contract valued at £52,738, and the period for the services is from 6th January 2026 to 30th April 2026. The procurement was conducted through the "Direct Award via Ofcom Market Research Framework", allowing a streamlined supplier selection.

This tender presents a business growth opportunity for companies specialising in market research services, particularly those with capabilities in both online and traditional survey methodologies. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete in this domain. The contract awarded to Yonder Consulting Limited, an SME, demonstrates the opportunity within this sector for businesses with expertise in gathering national demographic data and insights, thus providing pathways for expansion into public sector contracts.
