This procurement falls within the category of public-opinion polling services and is located in Exeter, England. The current stage of the procurement process is open tendering, with submissions due by 13th June 2017. The contract is expected to commence on 14th June 2017 and will run until 15th June 2017. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in research services, particularly those with expertise in public opinion polling and survey methodologies. Companies specialising in social research, data analysis, and statistics will find this contract particularly suited to their capabilities. The focus on immigration, vaccination, and climate change opens avenues for firms that can deliver accurate, representative surveys across diverse demographics in multiple countries, thus contributing to informed policy development. ## Notice The project will field nationally representative public opinion surveys research in at least 8 European countries to measure the prevalence and correlates of misperceptions about immigration, vaccination, and climate change. This work package is necessary to assessing the extent and variation of public misperceptions in Europe, as previously indicated, on three specific issue areas that cover distinct policy domains: immigration (politics), vaccines and vaccination (health), and climate change (science). By looking at misperceptions across Europe, it is possible to examine a much richer set of potential individual and institutional level factors that may limit or exacerbate the spread of misperceptions, and give us a better understanding of the contextual factors that condition receptivity to corrective messages. But just as importantly, it provides an opportunity to collect public opinion data on issues that pose potential risk to the health and wellbeing of the EU as an institution and to European populations more generally. More specifically, this work package will use survey research to ask Europeans their factual beliefs and opinions about issues where there are likely to misperceptions of significant consequence (politics, health, and science). Additional survey questions will be used to collect data about factors that might be related to misperceptions- everything from demographics (e.g. education) to political variables (e.g. ideology or partisan identification) to well-validated psychological constructs (e.g., need for cognition, need to evaluate, or openness) to everyday behaviour (media consumption). With these data, it will be possible to start examining the prevalence of misperceptions overall, as well as how they vary across different segments of the population. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4dca4b4c-20d4-44fe-9fb4-c973b36e6470 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 May 2017 | | Submission deadline | 13 Jun 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 13 Jun 2017 - 15 Jun 2017 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | 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 | UNIVERSITY OF EXETER | | Locality | EXETER | | Post town | Exeter | | Postcode | EX4 4QH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK4 Devon | | ITL 3 | TLK43 Devon CC | | Local authority | Exeter | | Electoral ward | Duryard and St James | | Westminster constituency | Exeter | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79320000 - Public-opinion polling services ## Release History - 10 May 2017 at 14:00 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4dca4b4c-20d4-44fe-9fb4-c973b36e6470 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4dca4b4c-20d4-44fe-9fb4-c973b36e6470 10th May 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=20085&B=EXETER Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/53042 User / Company ## Notice URLs - http://www.exeter.ac.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
