This tender presents an opportunity for businesses seeking to provide research and consultancy services related to corporation tax policy. Suitable businesses, especially those with expertise in policy analysis and consultation for the economic growth sector, can compete. HM Revenue & Customs aims to gain insights into CT obligations for smaller and mid-sized businesses, with a focus on identifying policy simplifications and process improvements. Businesses offering innovative solutions to support HMRC in understanding and addressing the needs of businesses within the UK economy would be well-suited to participate in this tender. ## Notice The way in which HMRC taxes and supports businesses to encourage economic growth, increase productivity and incentivise investment and innovation, has become even more important following the Covid pandemic. This is particularly true for smaller companies which are the backbone of the UK economy, driving growth and creating employment opportunities. HMRC has existing methods of engagement with large businesses to gain their views on managing their CT obligations. HMRC wants to conduct research to better understand the experiences and support needs of smaller and mid-sized businesses. In addition, insight suggests that some micro-businesses choose to trade as a limited company without fully understanding what this involves. This has consequences for corporate and personal compliance and can create unforeseen administrative burdens for the customer. To support policy changes, HMRC wants to better understand the experiences of these businesses once they have incorporated. The findings from this research will enable HMRC to identify, prioritise and design CT policy simplifications and process improvements. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2f21d64a-c9e5-4c0d-bc2f-796b35a274aa | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Dynamic | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Call-off from a dynamic purchasing system | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 1 Feb 2023 | | Submission deadline | 3 Aug 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 2 Aug 2022 | | Contract period | 7 Aug 2022 - 8 Apr 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £150,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £150,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | H M REVENUE & CUSTOMS | | Locality | SALFORD | | Post town | Manchester | | Postcode | M3 5BS | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD3 Greater Manchester | | ITL 3 | TLD34 Greater Manchester South West | | Local authority | Salford | | Electoral ward | Blackfriars & Trinity | | Westminster constituency | Salford | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | KANTAR PUBLIC | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 1 Feb 2023 at 12:38 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2f21d64a-c9e5-4c0d-bc2f-796b35a274aa - 1 Feb 2023 at 12:36 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2f21d64a-c9e5-4c0d-bc2f-796b35a274aa - 17 Aug 2022 at 11:24 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2f21d64a-c9e5-4c0d-bc2f-796b35a274aa - 17 Aug 2022 at 11:01 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2f21d64a-c9e5-4c0d-bc2f-796b35a274aa ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2f21d64a-c9e5-4c0d-bc2f-796b35a274aa 1st February 2023 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/b27b132f-5b28-400e-bd48-6b19e4d7dc6d ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
