This contract falls under the services industry, specifically classified as research services (CPV code 73110000). The procurement was conducted using a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period commenced on 28th June 2021 and extends until 16th July 2021. The award notice was published on 8th July 2021, following the end of the tender period on 21st June 2021. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in training and research consultancy, particularly those with expertise in behavioural insights and social research methodologies. Such businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), are well-suited to compete for future contracts that aim to enhance behavioural understanding in the context of energy policy and its associated behavioural change initiatives. Engaging in projects like this can foster growth and establish a strong portfolio within the public procurement sector. ## Notice **Please note this is an Award Notice not a call for competition** This contract has been awarded via Energy and Climate Change Behavioural Science Framework Agreement. Reference: CR20116. Background Achieving net-zero requires BEIS policies to result in behaviour change at the level of businesses and individuals. Social researchers in the Energy Social Research & Analysis (ESRA) team would like to develop their understanding of behavioural insights/science, in order to develop the skills necessary to recognise where the application of behavioural insights (BI) might be beneficial and to undertake more BI research in future. Developing BI capacity will allow us to help ensure policies are developed in a way that will encourage the greatest behaviour change with the fewest unintended consequences, thus aiding us in reaching net-zero. ESRA would therefore like to commission a two-day training programme to build behavioural insights capacity in the team. This course should be developed for experienced social researchers, assuming a high level of overall research methods knowledge but not assuming any significant prior exposure to behavioural insights. We would like roughly a two full-day training programme (on 12th & 13th July 2021) for 10 attendees that would cover: * Introduction to behavioural insights. * A range of behavioural insights methodologies/frameworks. * Guidance, examples, and interactive activities to teach participants how to apply these methods in the context of energy policy. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6d907d4c-4b96-480f-ac27-afc11e0bc7ac | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Call-off from a framework agreement | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 8 Jul 2021 | | Submission deadline | 21 Jun 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 23 Jun 2021 | | Contract period | 27 Jun 2021 - 16 Jul 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £9,070 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £9,070 | | 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 | UK SHARED BUSINESS SERVICES LIMITED | | Locality | SWINDON | | Post town | Swindon | | Postcode | SN2 1FL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK7 Gloucestershire and Wiltshire | | ITL 3 | TLK71 Swindon | | Local authority | Swindon | | Electoral ward | Rodbourne Cheney | | Westminster constituency | Swindon North | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | BEHAVIOURAL INSIGHTS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73110000 - Research services ## Release History - 8 Jul 2021 at 15:52 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6d907d4c-4b96-480f-ac27-afc11e0bc7ac ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6d907d4c-4b96-480f-ac27-afc11e0bc7ac 8th July 2021 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/SupplierAttachment/c088431e-b4af-40f7-800f-f2ffa3b88033 ## Notice URLs - http://www.uksbs.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
