This initiative falls within the research and development consultancy services sector and is located in London, with the tender stage being active. The deadline for submissions is set for midday on 6 February 2019, and the contract period is expected to commence on 27 February 2019, lasting until 28 August 2019. The procurement process follows an open procedure and is intended for services procurement. This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses specialising in economic research and consultancy.

In particular it will investigate under what economic conditions move to more/less productive jobs would take place and the likelihood of its occurring; b) Review the existing methods set out in WebTAG Unit A2.2 of assessing move to more/less productive jobs, assess whether it remains fit-for-purpose and if judged not, outline any potential improvements that may be needed.
