## Summary

The University of Exeter is currently seeking bids for a tender titled "COVID-19 - Public opinion panel surveys." This procurement falls under the industry category of survey conduction services, with a budget of £130,000, and a minimum value of £80,000. The procurement method is an open procedure, with the tender period closing on 26th June 2020. The contract is set to commence on 10th July 2020 and will last until 11th October 2021. The services will be delivered in the South West region of England.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses, particularly in the services sector that specialise in survey conduction and analysis. Companies offering data collection and analysis services, especially those experienced in public health research or social science disciplines, would be well-suited to compete. As the project aims to enhance understanding of public beliefs about COVID-19, stakeholders in health communications and policy implementation may also find this tender relevant for partnership or collaboration.

## Notice

Each component of the project will seek to increase our scientific understanding of information consumption and belief updating about science, health, and other controversial subjects while also generating practical, real-world recommendations that will help policymakers, journalists, and science communicators to design policies and deliver information that will help stop the pandemic. By combining a multi-wave survey experiment with a large enough sample to examine highly affected areas (e.g., West Midlands) and behavioural exposure data, this study will provide the most systematic measurement to date of (1) the accuracy of the COVID-related beliefs about public health and public policy; (2) the prevalence of health and policy misconceptions related to COVID-19 and the correlates of those misconceptions; (3) the prevalence of exposure to both high-quality and untrustworthy information about COVID-19, including the most important sources of (mis)information and the correlates of consumption of both types of information; and (4) the effectiveness of corrective information in combating COVID-related misconceptions.
