## Summary

The European Social Survey ERIC is seeking proposals for a project titled "Methodology to measure Media Context in the European Social Survey." This procurement falls under the category of social research services and is based in London, United Kingdom. The tender is currently in the open stage of procurement with a deadline for submissions set for 2nd November 2017. The project is valued at £45,000 and aims to develop a scoping report on methodologies for media context measurement, with work scheduled to commence from 1st January 2018 and conclude by 30th June 2018.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) engaged in social research and methodology development. Businesses that specialise in providing consulting services, research analysis, and report production would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. By collaborating with the European Social Survey ERIC, successful bidders can enhance their visibility and credibility in the research sector, potentially fostering further opportunities in both the public and private domains.

## Notice

The ESS ERIC wishes to commission a scoping report on potential methodologies for measuring media context on the European Social Survey. The report should review past approaches to this problem within the European Social Survey, evaluate alternatives where they already exist, and explore the merits and costs of developing a new methodology that reduces the burden on national coordinators and, if possible, eliminates the need for real-time selection and coding of media material during fieldwork periods. It should make recommendations for how the ESS ERIC should tackle the measurement of the fieldwork context henceforth, and produce a draft work package to implement these recommendations as part of the next ESS ERIC work programme in 2019-21.The scoping study should be conducted between the 1st of January 2018 and be ready by the 30th of June 2018.
