## Summary

The Department for Work and Pensions has completed the award stage of the "British Social Attitudes Survey 2025" procurement process. This contract involves research services to commission a module of questions regarding public spending and social attitudes towards social welfare, surveyed over the British adult population. The tender utilised a direct procurement method under a single tender action, with a contract value of £371,550. The contract runs from 6 February 2025 to 5 February 2027 and covers substantial regions, including the United Kingdom, Europe, Channel Islands, British Overseas Territories, Isle of Man, and the rest of the world. The National Centre for Social Research has been awarded the contract, emphasising their extensive capabilities in managing large-scale survey operations.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in research services, particularly those experienced in complex survey development and execution. Although the procurement method favours direct contracting, research service providers with established expertise in public spending and social welfare analysis might consider partnering with larger organisations like the National Centre for Social Research for subcontracting possibilities. While SMEs and VCSEs might find it challenging in this specific procurement due to suitability constraints, businesses with robust capacities in representing diverse geographical needs and extensive analytical capabilities will find themselves well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders.
