## Summary

The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government is planning a competitive tender process for the continued operation of the English Housing Survey. This procurement process falls under the 'Research services' industry category and is currently in the planning stage. The procurement will cover fieldwork for five years, with an optional extension of up to three additional years. An early engagement notice was published on 21 February 2025, and interested suppliers are invited to attend an online pre-market event scheduled for 20 March 2025.

This tender presents a valuable growth opportunity for businesses specialising in research services, particularly those with experience in large-scale surveys. Companies that can demonstrate robust methodologies and efficient logistic capabilities are well-suited to compete. Although the tender does not specifically encourage SME or VCSE participation, larger organisations with the relevant expertise will find this opportunity particularly appealing. By participating in this tender, businesses can establish or strengthen their ties with a significant government department, potentially paving the way for future contracts.
