Summary of the contracting process

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) is seeking a Customer Insight Consultant to enhance customer experience across their service offerings. This procurement is classified under the supply of personnel services, with a budget of £41,500 allocated for a contract period from 28th September 2021 to 11th January 2022. The tender was awarded on 28th September 2021, and the key procurement method used was a selective approach through a call-off from a framework agreement. The delivery of services is targeted within the South East region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for firms specialising in customer insight and service consultancy. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations would be particularly well-suited to compete, given the government’s commitment to supporting diverse suppliers. The project involves defining the scope for a future customer insight manager role, which indicates a potential for a longer-term engagement beyond this initial consultancy work.
