This procurement process is currently in the Award stage, having been published on 23rd June 2017, with the tender period closing on 5th July 2017. The total value of the contract is £25,000, and it is intended to start on 24th July 2017, running through to 31st December 2017, with delivery taking place in London, United Kingdom. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in research and consultancy, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector organisations (VCSEs). Companies specialising in equalities research, policy analysis, or related consultancy services would be particularly well-placed to compete. The project aims to influence future government policies on critical equalities issues, thereby encouraging partnerships at various levels to effect positive change, which could lead to further business opportunities in the public sector. ## Notice This project is being commissioned by London Councils. London Councils is committed to fighting for more resources for London and getting the best possible deal for London's 33 councils. We lobby for local governance for London boroughs, promoting their leadership of local communities and services and arguing for the tools necessary for them to do that job. We also act as a catalyst for effective sharing of practice, knowledge, information and services between boroughs. This project will provide a foundation for prioritising future influencing on critical areas of Government policy in terms of equalities at an important time for London local government. The work will initially offer a broad context to equalities issues related to housing, employment and skills, taking a cross-cutting approach to these policy areas and considering their cumulative impact on the equality of Londoners. This rapid review will then be used to prioritise key areas for more detailed research that will focus on areas where London Councils can work with partners at a local, regional and national level to affect positive change for Londoners. Additional information: The programme dates are indicative although there is a relatively short time frame for Phase 1 (3 weeks). It may be possible to extend if the scope require this, although a rapid review is required. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5b33d618-6496-4a54-aabf-b94663590635 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Aug 2017 | | Submission deadline | 5 Jul 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 1 Aug 2017 | | Contract period | 2 Aug 2017 - 30 Nov 2017 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £25,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £27,046 | | 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 | LONDON COUNCILS | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South East London | | Postcode | SE1 0AL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI44 Lewisham and Southwark | | Local authority | Southwark | | Electoral ward | Borough & Bankside | | Westminster constituency | Bermondsey and Old Southwark | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | LEARNING AND WORK | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73110000 - Research services - 73200000 - Research and development consultancy services ## Release History - 23 Aug 2017 at 09:14 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5b33d618-6496-4a54-aabf-b94663590635 - 27 Jun 2017 at 10:59 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/990cb450-40db-4735-ba4f-7b8a2e1b56e2 - 23 Jun 2017 at 11:54 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/990cb450-40db-4735-ba4f-7b8a2e1b56e2 - 23 Jun 2017 at 11:54 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/990cb450-40db-4735-ba4f-7b8a2e1b56e2 - 23 Jun 2017 at 11:34 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/990cb450-40db-4735-ba4f-7b8a2e1b56e2 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5b33d618-6496-4a54-aabf-b94663590635 23rd August 2017 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/990cb450-40db-4735-ba4f-7b8a2e1b56e2 27th June 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/1a96e52e-e32c-445a-9a88-939dce1670cd Specification - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/ecaadee8-74a2-45a7-9a5d-72315a5ec387 Terms and Conditions - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/68a3d5be-121f-49e3-bb6b-a76e21100a00 FOI Schedule - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/c7284075-5623-4402-8221-5ac749620422 Equal Opportunities Policy - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d772dbc3-d482-4ac7-9e82-cba4033550d0 Equal Opportunities Questionnaire - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/3c275364-efcc-40d9-8906-1d3d83990d03 Costing sheet - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d5c031f4-ed73-4a09-b3dc-85d1ee114f90 Check List ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
