The tender falls under the services category with a contract value of £45,000 GBP. The procurement method employed is an open procedure below the threshold, and the tender period ends on January 31, 2023. The contract period is set to run from March 1, 2023, to April 14, 2023, with the delivery location specified as London, England (postal code E1 6LS). This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialized in research and development services, particularly those with expertise in analysing subsidy mechanisms. With a focus on legislative frameworks supporting the provision of affordable credit, businesses keen on influencing wider markets and government policies in 2023/24 would find this tender suitable. Fair4All Finance is open to proposals for individual lots from potential partners who can contribute towards accelerating their understanding of alternative subsidy mechanisms and international policy approaches within the financially vulnerable circumstances sector. ## Notice The purpose of this piece of work is to increase our understanding of relevant UK and non-UK legislative frameworks and subsidy mechanisms that support the provision of affordable credit to people in financially vulnerable circumstances. Fair4All Finance is seeking an analysis of what works and what doesn't in these policies that incentivise or provide a legislative framework for mainstream financial services organisations to deliver services (either directly or indirectly) to people in financially vulnerable circumstances. This RFP is structured into two distinct lots. * Lot 1. Fair4All Finance is seeking support to accelerate our understanding of alterative subsidy mechanisms, with the potential for use in the provision of affordable credit by community finance and commercial providers. This short report will complement our existing real-life 'tests', with the aim of influencing the wider market and government policy in 2023/24. * Lot 2. Fair4All Finance is seeking support to accelerate our understanding of the Community Reinvestment Act (US) and other similar international policy approaches. Fair4All Finance is seeking an analysis of what works and what doesn't in these policies that incentivise or provide a legislative framework for mainstream financial services organisations to deliver services (either directly or indirectly) to people in financially vulnerable circumstances. Ideally, Fair4All Finance would like to identify a single partner to deliver both requirements but will consider proposals for individual lots. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b5cb85d8-5cda-435c-b0cb-52d14c4e12e0 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 13 Jan 2023 | | Submission deadline | 31 Jan 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Mar 2023 - 14 Apr 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £45,000 | | 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 | FAIR4ALL FINANCE LIMITED | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | East London | | Postcode | E1 6LS | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI42 Tower Hamlets | | Local authority | Tower Hamlets | | Electoral ward | Spitalfields & Banglatown | | Westminster constituency | Bethnal Green and Stepney | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 13 Jan 2023 at 16:15 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b5cb85d8-5cda-435c-b0cb-52d14c4e12e0 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b5cb85d8-5cda-435c-b0cb-52d14c4e12e0 13th January 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://fair4allfinance.marketdojo.com/users/current_opportunities Full details of this Request for Proposal are available via the Market Dojo link. ## Notice URLs - https://fair4allfinance.org.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
