Summary of the contracting process

Rotherham Borough Council is initiating a public procurement process for a "Tenant Perception Survey," which is classified under survey services in the industry category. The project requires a comprehensive tenant satisfaction survey, compliant with Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs), to help guide service improvements for the Council. This contract, valued at £85,000, is set in the UKE region of the United Kingdom and is scheduled to commence from 1st August 2026, running through to 31st July 2031. The procurement stage is active with the tender period ending on 30th June 2026 at 12:00 PM BST. The purchasing method is an open competition, seeking submissions via the YORtender system, where all tender documents are accessible.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in survey services, particularly those adept at executing large-scale satisfaction surveys. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this opportunity well-matched due to the Council's suitability criteria endorsing SME engagement. Companies that can deliver high-quality method statement responses, accounting for 70% of the evaluation, along with competitive pricing, will be well-positioned to benefit from participating in this contract, allowing them to potentially strengthen their portfolio and gain a foothold in public sector service provision. The project paves the way for business growth over a four-year period, offering consistent engagement and the potential for further collaborations with local government bodies.
