## Summary

The Home Office, located in London, is currently in the tender stage for the contract titled "Provision of On-Line Research - Understanding The Impact And Effectiveness of Counter Narratives." This procurement falls under the category of research and development consultancy services, with an estimated budget ranging between £20,000 to £100,000. The tender period closes on 24th August 2017, and the contract is expected to commence on 15th September 2017, with completion of projects by the end of January 2018 and final reports due by 15th February 2018.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in innovative research methodologies, including both modern and traditional approaches like surveys and interviews. Businesses experienced in online research and effective content delivery in digital environments would be particularly well-suited to participate, potentially leading to impactful contributions to the government's understanding of counter-narrative effectiveness.

## Notice

The Home Office is seeking to fund a number of small innovative research projects (preferably ranging from PS20k - PS50k) in order to measure the impact and effectiveness of both formal and informal counter narratives, as well as determine the best methods to deliver these. Specifically we aim to establish a stronger evidence base on the most effective ways to deliver counter narrative content in the online information environment. The findings will help to inform approaches that lead to demonstrable attitude and behavioural change, as well as identify the most effective delivery mechanism. It is expected that projects will need to be completed by the end of January 2018, and that final reports will be delivered by 15th February 2018. We are keen for research proposals to be innovative and novel; however we will also consider research projects that employ more traditional methodologies (e.g. surveys or interviews). Responses to this Invitation To Tender will be evaluated by Home Office research and policy officials and Commercial Directorate. Further details can be found within the attached tender documentation.
