## Summary

The Arts Council England is seeking a supplier to conduct research that will illustrate the economic contribution of the arts and culture sector to the national economy, titled "Economic contribution of the Arts and Culture to the National Economy." This tender, categorised under research and development consultancy services (CPV 73200000) and economic research services (CPV 79311400), has a tender period that ends on 29 June 2018, with the contract starting on 2 July 2018 and concluding on 28 September 2018. The total contract value is set at £35,000, and proposals must be submitted as part of an open tendering process. The services may be delivered across various locations, including the UK and overseas territories.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in economic research and consultancy, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations. By competing for this contract, businesses can not only potentially enhance their service offerings in the arts sector but also gain recognition for their expertise in influencing national economic policy. This project allows for collaboration in a vital area of public interest that has far-reaching implications for the arts and cultural landscape in the UK.

## Notice

We are seeking a supplier to undertake research to help demonstrate and articulate the economic contribution of the arts and culture sector to the national economy. This will provide an updated picture of the sector's contribution to the economy, following on from three previous studies conducted by the Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR), the most recent of which was published in November 2017. This was first commissioned in 2012 as part of a suite of research aiming to further develop our understanding of how the arts, museums and libraries sectors contribute to the economy, in order to support the sector to continue to improve their contribution to the nation's economic prosperity. It was also important to consider how this contribution could be appropriately evidenced. The purpose of this ongoing strand of the research, and the objective of this ITT, is to continue to develop a clear and robust account of the economic contribution arts and culture make to the national economy.
