## Summary

The University of Sheffield has awarded a contract for Data Collection services as part of the INFUSION project focusing on Indian Food Systems for Improved Nutrition. The procurement process was structured into two lots: Lot 1 for HAAT (Market) level data collection and Lot 2 for HOUSEHOLD level data collection. The total contract value is £206,000, and it was signed on 31st January 2024.

This contract offers business growth opportunities in the data collection and collation services sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as larger consulting firms, would be well-suited to compete for similar tenders, especially those with expertise in handling substantial data collection projects. The University of Sheffield, as the buying organisation, seeks to engage with qualified suppliers to support the INFUSION project in Bihar, India, during the 2024-25 period.

## Notice

INFUSION ('Indian Food Systems for Improved Nutrition') is a new research project with two UK and four India partner organisations. INFUSION has a major focus on village markets, or haats, and the role that they play in the food consumption and nutrition of rural communities. The project seeks to collect extensive data from a sample of haats and from rural communities in Bihar, India during 2024-25. There are two major streams of data collection: (i) haat (market)-level and (ii) population (household)-level. Given that each of the two levels of data collection will be substantial undertakings, we have split the data collection into two Lots.
