This procurement falls within the research and development services category and is based in London, United Kingdom. The tender, initiated through an open procedure, is at the planning stage, with submissions due by 23 February 2018. Successful completion of the contract is expected by 3 April 2018, with invoicing required by 26 March 2018. The total budget for this project is £20,000. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in research consultancy, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies that can demonstrate expertise in innovation networking and international comparisons in economic growth strategies would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. The insights gained from this study may also help companies enhance their own practices by learning from successful models in similar organisations around the world. ## Notice As part of our ambition to always improve and be the best at what we do, KTN would like to find out more about organisations in other countries we should use as our comparators. We would like to invite suppliers to identify organisations which share a similar remit of encouraging and facilitating economic growth through innovation networking. Through this study we are hoping to find out how they are structured, how they are funded, how they operate and what lessons of best practice we might learn from them. We are interested to find out how the identified organisations differ depending on the political and economic environments in which they operate in and what makes them successful in that context. https://www.ktn-uk.co.uk/ Additional information: All work related to this Statement of Works is expected to be completed, including submission of a final report, by Tuesday 3 April 2018. However, the work needs to be invoiced no later than Monday 26 March. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7e3786f1-f587-458b-9f42-90899a8c2707 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Feb 2018 | | Submission deadline | 23 Feb 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 28 Feb 2018 - 3 Apr 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £20,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER NETWORK LIMITED | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | North London | | Postcode | N1 0QH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI43 Haringey and Islington | | Local authority | Islington | | Electoral ward | St Mary's & St James' | | Westminster constituency | Islington South and Finsbury | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 15 Feb 2018 at 11:07 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7e3786f1-f587-458b-9f42-90899a8c2707 - 14 Feb 2018 at 16:41 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7e3786f1-f587-458b-9f42-90899a8c2707 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7e3786f1-f587-458b-9f42-90899a8c2707 15th February 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d4dd8698-6c01-4cfb-ad99-a3b9bfc4daa6 Invitation to Quote Statement of Works KTN-ITQ6885 - https://www.ktn-uk.co.uk/news/invitation-to-quote-benchmarking-ktn-to-innovation-networks-in-other-nations Invitation to Quote Statement of Works KTN-ITQ6885 ## Notice URLs - https://www.ktn-uk.co.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
