This project, awarded to RAND Europe UK Ltd, aims to enhance public engagement strategies related to new technologies for various stakeholders in the UK. The contract, valued at £46,648, falls under the category of research and development services and was processed through a selective procurement method as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The contract period commenced on 16th September 2020 and concluded on 8th December 2020, with the tender period closing on 20th August 2020. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in research and consultancy services, particularly those that focus on market and economic research. Smaller enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their influence in public engagement practices would be well-suited to compete in future tender opportunities of this nature. The contract's emphasis on developing innovative public engagement techniques also aligns with the interests of businesses involved in the technology sector and those offering consultancy services for governmental and regulatory bodies. ## Notice ***THIS IS NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION**** This contract has been awarded against Crown Commercial Services Research Marketplace DPS. The aim of this project is to build up the evidence base so that BRE can act as a centre of excellence and a source of advice to government departments and regulators on how to best conduct public engagement to inform and create a narrative around new technologies and technological innovation. It will help departments and regulators identify what public engagement technique to use, to ensure new technology and technological innovation are understood properly across different stakeholder groups (lobbyists, social influencers, politicians, and the general public), that concerns are discussed appropriately, and consumers and businesses have confidence in innovations and the regulatory system. This supports BRE's regulation-innovation enabling agenda. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/51059e48-31e6-4ec9-aaf9-8d8532e96cdf | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Dynamic | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Call-off from a dynamic purchasing system | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 22 Dec 2020 | | Submission deadline | 20 Aug 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 7 Sep 2020 | | Contract period | 15 Sep 2020 - 8 Dec 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £46,648 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £46,648 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | UK SHARED BUSINESS SERVICES LIMITED | | Locality | SWINDON | | Post town | Swindon | | Postcode | SN2 1FF | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK7 Gloucestershire and Wiltshire | | ITL 3 | TLK71 Swindon | | Local authority | Swindon | | Electoral ward | Rodbourne Cheney | | Westminster constituency | Swindon North | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | RAND EUROPE | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 79300000 - Market and economic research; polling and statistics ## Release History - 22 Dec 2020 at 12:29 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/51059e48-31e6-4ec9-aaf9-8d8532e96cdf - 11 Nov 2020 at 11:10 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/51059e48-31e6-4ec9-aaf9-8d8532e96cdf ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/51059e48-31e6-4ec9-aaf9-8d8532e96cdf 22nd December 2020 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/SupplierAttachment/05580fec-8e04-4894-aaa0-09c457e38724 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/SupplierAttachment/2b89c228-0970-4154-bf3f-f5d2168691c9 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/SupplierAttachment/a2ddfbcc-132b-4835-bf58-03cb2ac76b9c - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/SupplierAttachment/025631ca-c120-4bb1-9638-fee237afd276 ## Notice URLs - http://www.uksbs.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
