This project aimed to conduct a randomised controlled trial in collaboration with members of the Cavendish Consortium and Lancaster University Management School. The tender was initiated as a direct procurement through a single tender action and ran from June 2020 to February 2022. Key dates include the tender period, which ended on 19 June 2020, and the contract period commencing on 1 July 2020, with a total contract value of £38,574. This opportunity can foster business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in conducting market research, survey administration, and evaluation consultancy. Businesses with expertise in managing large-scale survey projects, data analysis, and experience working with family-owned businesses will find themselves well-suited for future tenders similar to this one, creating pathways for increased engagement with public sector clients. ## Notice Business West plans to run a randomised controlled trial. The trial, led by Business West, includes the other members of the Cavendish Consortium (trading as Cavendish Enterprise) i.e TEDCO Business Support Ltd, Enterprise First (Southern) Ltd, NBV Enterprise Solutions Ltd; together with Lancaster University Management School (LUMS). We will be collaborating with Warwick Business School for the evaluation and for reporting. The trial will run from June 2020 to February 2022. Business West is seeking to appoint a provider that can deliver two waves of survey interviews each comprising up to four hundred and twenty completed interviews with Founders/MD/CEOs of family businesses. Activities will include set-up, input on questionnaire design, sample cleaning and processing, online questionnaire, telephone fieldwork, project management, and provision of a clean and coded dataset after each wave of fieldwork. The delivery partners will recruit two hundred and eighty businesses for the service. The successful bidder will recruit one hundred and forty businesses. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e6bf2a4b-a302-4357-b38c-112010050dd8 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Direct | | Procurement method details | Single tender action (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 7 Jul 2020 | | Submission deadline | 19 Jun 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 28 Jun 2020 | | Contract period | 30 Jun 2020 - 28 Feb 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £38,574 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | GWE BUSINESS WEST LTD | | Locality | BRISTOL | | Post town | Bristol | | Postcode | BS8 3RA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK6 North Somerset, Somerset and Dorset | | ITL 3 | TLK61 North Somerset | | Local authority | North Somerset | | Electoral ward | Pill | | Westminster constituency | North Somerset | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | O M B RESEARCH | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79311000 - Survey services - 79342310 - Customer survey services - 79419000 - Evaluation consultancy services ## Release History - 7 Jul 2020 at 10:20 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e6bf2a4b-a302-4357-b38c-112010050dd8 - 1 Jun 2020 at 07:07 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9be3aa02-9579-422a-b14c-9a05ec9e37bb ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e6bf2a4b-a302-4357-b38c-112010050dd8 7th July 2020 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9be3aa02-9579-422a-b14c-9a05ec9e37bb 1st June 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/56b94054-62c8-4ea2-ab81-9398d792a2d4 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
