## Summary

VisitBritain is inviting tender applications for the project titled "GB-London: VB783 Luxury Tourism Consumer Research". This procurement, classified under the industry category of market research services, aims to gather insights about the luxury tourism market in the UK. Located in London, the tender is currently in the planning stage, with the submission deadline set for 3rd March 2017. The estimated value of the contract ranges from £10,000 to £25,000, and it will commence shortly after on 7th March 2017, running for one year until 6th March 2018. The procurement method is open, allowing various suppliers to compete for this opportunity.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in market research and tourism consultancy. Businesses with expertise in luxury consumer behaviour research are particularly well-suited to compete, as the project focuses on understanding how to attract and engage high-value tourists to Britain's offerings. Engaging in this project could not only enhance their profiles but also open pathways to future contracts related to tourism development and marketing strategies.

## Notice

The luxury tourism market is an important sector for some of Britain's key inbound visitor markets, and one that we would like to grow, but we do not currently have a lot of insight available on these visitors. We would like to better understand current and potential luxury tourists to the UK and what Britain could and should offer to the luxury travellers. Ultimately we need to understand how VisitBritain should reach this audience and how to market to them to drive additional tourist visits and spending. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
