## Summary

The procurement process pertains to a market study research project titled "Funerals market study research (quantitative)" conducted by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA). Located in London, this procurement falls under the research services category, specifically aiming for both national and regional insights. The process has reached the award stage, with key dates indicating that the tender period ended on 8th June 2018, while the contract duration runs from 21st June 2018 to 1st October 2018. This selective procurement was executed through a call-off from a framework agreement and has a total value of £24,080.

Opportunities for business growth from this contract primarily favour SMEs that can offer research capabilities aligned with consumer insights in the funerals industry. Firms specialising in market research services are particularly well-suited to compete, as the CMA seeks comprehensive consumer data to inform regulatory activities. This presents a valuable chance for businesses capable of delivering both qualitative and quantitative research tailored to understanding consumer behaviours and preferences within this specific market segment.

## Notice

Primary research with consumers is required to inform the evidence-gathering on this case. In the course of a market study or market investigation, a merger case, super-complaint investigation or other regulatory/enforcement activity, the CMA may need to commission consumer research as part of its evidence-gathering process. Research projects can be national (GB/UK), regional or local in scope, and our requirements range in scale and complexity.
