UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of East Anglia bought online recruitment of participants for research studies. The work covers finding and recruiting people online, with related survey delivery, social research, advertising management and campaign services, and public relations. The research recruitment is intended to support the university’s studies; the services are delivered in the United Kingdom. The requirement sits within research and participant recruitment services, rather than general-purpose advertising alone, and combines audience outreach with the practical work of securing participants for studies.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to TSJP Ltd. The University of East Anglia used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition; the procurement was not divided into separately described lots. The contract was signed on 5 October 2026, with a period from 6 October 2026 to 31 October 2029. Its gross value is £66,148. No award evaluation criteria are stated. The award covers the online recruitment service and associated survey, social research, advertising and public relations activity.

For a future requirement from the University of East Anglia, a credible supplier would need to demonstrate that it can recruit research participants online and deliver recruitment for research studies, supported by survey and social research capability. The selected supplier was a small or medium-sized business, showing that this requirement has been met by an SME. Related capabilities included managing advertising and campaigns and providing public relations, so suppliers able to combine participant recruitment with audience outreach may be better placed than firms offering advertising alone. The work is a focused research-support service, requiring the ability to reach suitable participants and coordinate recruitment around study needs.
