The budget for this project ranges between £40,000 and £60,000. The tender is an open procedure (below threshold), suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, and spans the geographical coverage including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in market research services, particularly those with expertise in healthcare and radiotherapy. Companies engaging in this project can not only contribute to improving healthcare standards and methods but also enhance their portfolio by associating with a reputable institution like NPL. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) can particularly benefit from this contract through increased exposure and potential long-term collaborations. Firms with robust experience in healthcare technology development and cost reduction strategies will be well-positioned to compete for this contract. ## Notice The National Measurement System (NMS) provides the UK with an infrastructure of laboratories that deliver world-class measurement science and technology and provide traceable and accurate standards of measurement. Improving the productivity of UK industry is essential in sustaining and improving prosperity for our nation, and measurement plays a fundamental role in optimising and improving industrial processes. The NMS focuses on major societal challenges, through the set-up of challenge areas which sit across measurement science functions. One of these challenge areas is 'Life Science and Health,' which aims to improve standards and methods across healthcare, contribute towards developments in healthcare technologies, and improve the delivery of healthcare services while helping to reduce costs. This RFQ invites applications for one of the four short-term health impacts studies that were identified by a previous scoping study. This impact study will aim to estimate the benefits resulting from NPL's work in the field of Radiotherapy and Radiation Dosimetry. Further information about NPL's contributions in this area is provided later. The budget range is between PS40,000 - PS60,000 for particularly good proposals. NPL expects proposals to fall within this range.
