## Summary

The Equality and Human Rights Commission has completed a public procurement process for the "Publications Evaluation" project, classified under social research services (CPV: 79315000). The procurement was conducted using a selective method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period closed on 6 February 2018, and the contract was awarded on 21 February 2018, with the contract duration spanning from 22 February 2018 to 14 May 2018. The total value of the contract is £19,796, and the service was delivered to various locations including the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses, particularly small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations, to showcase their capabilities in qualitative research and stakeholder engagement. Companies with expertise in social research, public relations, or communications are encouraged to consider similar future opportunities created by the commission's ongoing evaluations and improvements in their stakeholder interactions.

## Notice

This year we commissioned some stakeholder tracking research, looking at what our key stakeholders thought about the scope and overall standing of the Commission, perceptions of our role, objectives and effectiveness, the quality of stakeholders' relationship with us and what they thought about our communications. Publications made up a small subsection of the section on our communications more generally, and the findings can be provided on request. This research was based on an electronic survey and also some telephone calls to gather more information. We would like to drill down into more detail on publications to find out where we can improve and to help us set baselines to measure any future improvements against. To do this, we would like a supplier to submit a proposal for obtaining qualitative information from our key audiences to provide us with a deeper understanding of their views on our work.
