## Summary

The Department for Education in London has recently completed a procurement process for an "On-call Research Contract," aimed at delivering qualitative and quantitative research to support the department's communications strategy. This contract, classified under research services (CPV 73110000) and additional education and training services (CPV 80000000), employed an accelerated restricted procedure for selection. The tender period concluded on 22 January 2017, with the contract execution starting on 31 January 2017 and running until 31 March 2017. This contract was awarded to YouGov plc, with an overall value of £100,000.

This procurement process presents valuable business growth opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary or community sector organisations (VCSEs) that specialise in research services and insights. Companies with expertise in qualitative and quantitative research methodologies, especially those focusing on educational and training services, would be particularly well-suited to engage with future projects from the Department for Education or similar government departments in the UK.
