Notice Information
Notice Title
Staff Engagement Surveys
Notice Description
The Authority sought Contractor(s) for the provision of Staff Engagement Survey services to the Scottish Further Education and Higher Education sector.
Lot Information
Self-Serve (Software-Led)
Lot 1 is a self-managed service that mainly focusses on the functionality of the platform, with most of the surveys being designed and executed by the institutions themselves. Additional value-added features will be sought, such as the ability to carry out unlimited surveys, access to survey templates and ongoing dashboard support that will help optimise the quality of the provision.
Renewal: The Framework Agreement is anticipated to commence on the 1st August 2023 for a period of 36 months and expire on the 31st July 2026. The Authority reserves the right to extend the Framework Agreement for a further 12-month period subject to satisfactory performance and continued Institutions requirements.
Project-managed (Research House)Lot 2 is aligned with the procurement of an outsourced and project-managed service provision and is therefore more complex as a result. A close working relationship between the contractors and institutions will be fostered throughout the term of the contract and will include on-going dialogue between the two parties. The service will be comprehensive and detailed in scope, with an end-to-end approach that will include objective setting, strategy building and action planning.
