## Summary

The Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities has awarded a contract for the provision of up-to-date data on high street vacancy rates. The contract includes a minor expansion to provide a CSV version of the data set. The contract value is £106,500, with a contract period from 13th September 2023 to 24th January 2024. The procurement stage is at the award stage, and the contract was awarded on 11th September 2023.

This procurement process can create opportunities for businesses offering research services, especially those interested in working with government departments on data analysis and policy-making. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are well-suited to compete in this open procedure below threshold. Suppliers should consider the Department's focus on understanding local areas and high street performance to tailor their proposals accordingly to meet the Department's needs.

## Notice

This contract has already been awarded and is published for transparency purposes. The Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities procured a supplier to provide access to up to date data on high street vacancy rates and to use this data to understand how different local areas and individual high streets and town centres are performing in order to inform policy making. The Department has now made a minor expansion to the scope of the format of the provision of the data, which will now include a CSV version of the full data set. There is a need for greater data accessibility and to respond to analytical requests of a more granular nature following the creation of a Spatial Data Unit.
