UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Glass Futures Ltd is procuring a services contract for an evidence-led policy research and engagement programme supporting the FISC–EIUG campaign. The work combines policy research, development consultancy and general management consultancy, with the supplier expected to produce evidence and engage relevant stakeholders in support of the campaign’s objectives. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The requirement is for one supplier and is managed by Glass Futures Ltd, a public undertaking based in St Helens. This opportunity will suit consultancies, research organisations and public affairs or stakeholder engagement specialists able to connect robust analysis with practical engagement activity for a UK-wide campaign.

The procurement has reached the tender stage: Glass Futures Ltd invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The contract is for up to four months, from 12 October 2026 to 12 January 2027. The estimated value is £75,000 excluding VAT, or £90,000 including VAT. Questions or clarification requests had to be submitted by 5pm on 2 September 2026, and tenders had to be submitted by noon on 9 September 2026. The requirement is divided into one lot. Offers are evaluated on quality and price, with quality weighted at 60% and price at 40%. The tender sets out submission through Tenders@glass-futures.org and the Glass Futures website.

This opportunity suits small and medium-sized enterprises as well as established consultancies with experience in policy research, evidence gathering and stakeholder engagement. Strong candidates will be able to design and deliver a focused research programme, turn findings into clear policy evidence, and use that evidence to support an engagement campaign. Relevant capability may include policy analysis, research methods, report writing, public affairs, communications and relationship management with stakeholders. The work requires a supplier able to combine analytical quality with practical programme delivery, manage the full assignment through to its outputs, and operate across a United Kingdom-wide brief. Organisations offering integrated research and engagement services are particularly well placed to compete.
