UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation commissioned a staff survey for 2027. The requirement is a research and consultancy service covering the design and delivery of an organisational staff survey, with the purpose of gathering structured feedback from employees. The service falls within research and development services and related consultancy. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. UK Research and Innovation is the buying organisation, with UK Shared Business Services Ltd acting as the procuring entity and shared service provider. The requirement is a single service package rather than a set of separately described workstreams. It is relevant to employee research agencies, market research consultancies and organisations experienced in delivering staff engagement or workforce surveys for public bodies.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It followed a below-threshold limited competition, rather than an open procedure. DJS Research Ltd was selected for the single service package. The contract was signed on 9 September 2026 and runs from 9 September 2026 to 28 May 2027. Its value is £21,250 excluding VAT, or £25,500 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The published outcome describes the procurement as a contract details notice, not a call for competition. The available outcome records the selected supplier and contract terms, but does not set out a separate scoring breakdown or additional evaluation criteria.

This award indicates a defined requirement within UK Research and Innovation for specialist employee research delivered as a managed staff survey. Suppliers considering comparable work for this buyer would need credible capability in survey design, questionnaire development, employee communications, data collection, analysis and clear reporting of findings. Experience handling workforce or staff engagement research would be directly relevant, particularly where respondents, confidentiality and the presentation of reliable organisational insights must be managed carefully. The successful supplier is a small or medium-sized research business, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only by a large consultancy. Businesses with public-sector research experience, strong quality assurance and the capacity to complete a full survey service should monitor this buyer’s comparable requirements.
