## Summary

The Department of Energy Security & Net Zero (DESNZ) has completed the tendering process for the provision of survey software, titled "Survey Software Research," under the industry category of Software Package and Information Systems. This procurement process, classified as a Direct Award Approach, was finalised with the award stage on 31st August 2024, after which the contract period is set to run from 1st September 2024 to 31st August 2027. The tender, valued at £32,918, will cover delivery to several locations including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The contract is intended to facilitate in-house research for DESNZ, previously managed through Qualtrics, and it aims to provide cost-effective and swift research capabilities in response to critical situations like energy crises.

This awarded contract to Capricom Ventis Ltd, a large-scale supplier based in Anglesey, represents significant business growth opportunities for firms specialising in survey software and research solutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) could find themselves well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders, given their capability to innovate and deliver specialised software services swiftly. The awarded contract stands as an example of how government departments like DESNZ look to build partnerships with businesses that can provide agile and cost-efficient solutions across a broad spectrum of geographical areas, thereby expanding their clientele and demonstrating their expertise in the public sector procurement market.

## Notice

The provision of survey software to enable in-house research within DESNZ. For several years the Department (DESNZ and previously BEIS) have held contracts with Qualtrics, a survey software platform provider. This software has been used by DESNZ researchers to deliver in-house research, which has been particularly useful when research has had to be delivered at pace (e.g. in response to the energy crisis) and to provide a lower cost option to conduct research without needing to procure external contractors. This software is also currently used across government for similar purposes.
