This project, located in London, aimed to analyse remuneration policies of FTSE 350 companies, with an award value of £41,000. The tender was published on 7th May 2020, and the submission period closed on 1st June 2020. The FRC employed an open procedure for this tender, contracting with a single supplier. This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in research and consultancy services, particularly those specializing in corporate governance and remuneration analysis. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to engage in similar future tenders, given the FRC's commitment to promoting transparency and integrity in business practices. The analysis of shareholder voting and policy examination could yield insights beneficial for consultancy firms with experience in corporate accountability. ## Notice The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) regulates auditors, accountants and actuaries and sets the UK's Corporate Governance and Stewardship Codes. We seek to promote transparency and integrity in business; our work is aimed at investors and others who rely on company accounts, audit and high-quality risk management. This Notice relates to our Remuneration Research Project. The project will have two parts,- Part A will use content analysis to examine remuneration policies detailed in company annual reports covering the periods both before and after the Code's introduction.
