## Notice

***** THIS IS AN AWARD NOTICE, NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION ***** This procurement is being concluded following a mini competition under Contracts Finder Brief Description of Requirement The UK Committee on Research Integrity and its members are often asked for anecdotal evidence/ stories related to research integrity. A repository of case studies that can be used will aid them in this and may be used for instigating discussions and providing alternative viewpoints. Consequently, the Committee is keen to have a series of real-life case studies which showcase examples of enhanced research integrity to use in promotional material and discussion documents. These promotional materials and documents will help the committee fulfil its formal responsibility for promoting research integrity across the UK and building consensus and co-ownership across the system. Case studies may be used in print and digital media, and verbally.
