## Summary

The public procurement contract titled "CR19043 - Business Omnibus Brexit Barometer" has been awarded by the UK Shared Business Services Limited. This procurement, classified under Research and development consultancy services, is geared towards collecting monthly data on the impact of Brexit on businesses. The contract commenced on 11th July 2019 and will run until 21st October 2019, with a total value of £40,200. The procurement method used was a single tender action, permitted under Public Commercial Regulations, indicating that the contract was awarded without a competitive tender process.

This tender presents an opportunity for market research and consultancy firms to expand their service offerings, particularly those experienced in economic and polling research. Businesses equipped to analyse data related to Brexit’s economic impact or with capabilities in conducting extensive surveys would be particularly well-suited to compete in future opportunities of a similar nature. Engaging with government departments like the Department for Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy can also enhance a business's profile and lead to further contracts in a landscape significantly shaped by Brexit-related policies.

## Notice

**This is not a call for competition** The Department for Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy have awarded this contract without prior publication against Public Commercial Regulations 2015, Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii). We are purchasing monthly data drawn from survey questions asked on our behalf by BVA BRDC which undertakes a monthly omnibus survey of businesses. The survey questions seek to allow BEIS to monitor and build better understanding of the impact of Brexit on businesses (e.g. extent of cash-flow issues for businesses in supply chains), as well as businesses' preparations for Brexit. BEIS is receiving monthly data for a 6-month period. We receive aggregated data with splits by business size, region, sector and international trade activity. In the case of a couple of questions, we also receive verbatim answers. The data will - inform ministers and senior officials in BEIS and other government departments as to how businesses are coping with and preparing for Brexit - shape BEIS' business finance and business support policy development to mitigate against any business adjustments required to cope with Brexit, especially a no-deal Brexit, - and inform BEIS' stakeholder engagement and communications strategies on Brexit issues. The findings will also go into high-profile internal briefings, including the cross-Whitehall "Kingfisher" brief and our regular Perm Sec briefings from the BEIS chief economist.
