This procurement process falls under the services industry category, specifically focusing on data collection and collation services. Bids must be submitted electronically by 12:00 on 8 August 2022, with the contract period expected to last for 210 days. The tender involves recruiting participants from across Wales to engage in public health surveys, aiming to ensure national representativeness by age, geography, sex, and socio-economic status. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in survey design, data collection, and public health research methodologies. Companies with expertise in engaging diverse populations and managing large-scale surveys will find this an attractive opportunity. With the emphasis on representing under-represented groups, businesses that have experience in community outreach and tailored communication strategies will be well-positioned to submit competitive bids and collaborate with the NHS in enhancing public health understanding in Wales. ## Notice Public Health Wales seeks to commission the establishment and piloting of a population panel for Wales, to engage the public on issues of key public health importance (e.g., health inequalities, health behaviours, population aspirations for public health, perceptions on public health policy, and new avenues of research and evaluation). Establishment of the population panel will focus on panel recruitment, methods of panel rotation, and methods of participation and their implementation (e.g., online survey self-completion, computer assisted telephone interviewing [CATI], computer assisted self-interviewing [CASI], mixed approaches to suit participant preferences). We envision each monthly panel survey to include a sample of approximately 800-1,000 residents. Panel membership will ensure national representativeness within each monthly survey, according to geography, age, sex, and deprivation quintile (as determined by the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation), with over-sampling of participants resident in Wales' most deprived lower super output areas. Panel membership would also represent the rich diversity of the Welsh population, with over-sampling of under-represented population groups, including by ethnicity, disability, and younger age. We expect the pilot phase (to March 2023) to include recruitment and initial surveying of panel members and second-contact surveying to inform understanding of retention, possible attrition, rotation, and ongoing maintenance of the panel. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The principal objectives of the procurement are to: Commission the establishment of, and recruitment to, a rotating population panel (n~800-1,000 per month) composed of individuals aged 16/18 years and older resident in Wales We welcome quotes to detail costs for monthly survey samples of a) 800 and b) 1,000 participants. Please detail indicative numbers for total panel membership required to obtain these monthly samples. Pilot the panel survey approach and format i.e., second-contact surveying, ideally over a period of three months. Based on an expected average, we anticipate the questionnaires to take approximately 20 minutes if undertaken by telephone. Obtain an agreement compliant with the PHW NHS Trust's Standard Financial Instructions for the procurement of the fieldwork for the survey. Ensure value for money principles are adhered to via a procurement provisioned to support a national service. Obtain indicative costings for the implementation and management of the population panel (n~800-1,000 per month) on an annual basis following its establishment. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/018124-2022 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 4 Jul 2022 | | Submission deadline | 8 Aug 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS WALES SHARED SERVICES PARTNERSHIP-PROCUREMENT SERVICES (HOSTED BY VELINDRE UNIVERSITY NHS TRUST) | | Locality | CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF15 7QZ | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL51 Central Valleys and Bridgend | | Local authority | Rhondda Cynon Taf | | Electoral ward | Taff's Well | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff North | | Delivery location | TLL Wales | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 72314000 - Data collection and collation services ## Release History - 4 Jul 2022 at 11:10 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/018124-2022 ## Notice URLs - http://nwssp.nhs.wales/ourservices/procurement-services/ - https://etenderwales.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.shtml - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/Search_AuthProfile.aspx?ID=AA0221 - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=122718 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
