The Department for Transport (DfTc) has completed the procurement process for the "Phase 2: Non-Driving Related Activities" contract, classified under the Research services category (CPV 73110000). This contract, which began on 1st October 2024 and will end on 30th September 2025, focuses on further studies into non-driving related activities. With a total value of GBP 344,147, this procurement was conducted via a single tender action below the threshold and was awarded to 7th Sense Research UK Limited. The contract involves delivery across multiple locations, including British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in research services, especially those capable of handling large-scale contracts over extended periods. The procurement methodifies that extensive pre-existing expertise and established quality are crucial, making it ideal for well-established companies in the research sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises, however, may benefit by forming collaborations with such contracting authorities or through subcontracting opportunities. Leveraging this tender can lead to valuable recognition and potential future contract opportunities with government departments like the Department for Transport.
