## Summary

The Home Office is currently conducting a procurement process for the provision of fieldwork to support qualitative research related to child sexual exploitation offenders.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those with expertise in qualitative research and experience working with vulnerable populations in secure environments.
