The procurement process is currently in the Award stage, with a total contract value of £200,000. The contract period is set to commence on 23rd February 2018 and conclude on 24th February 2020.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses focussed on user research and IT consultancy, particularly those with expertise in delivering services to governmental bodies. Companies with experience in user research methodologies and a strong knowledge of the public sector would be well-suited to pursue similar contracts.
