## Summary

The Welsh Government is conducting a procurement process for the research project titled "Social Model of Disability Research" in the services industry category. The procurement stage is currently active, with a final submission deadline of 8th January 2024. The procurement method used is an open procedure. The contracting authority is the Welsh Government, and the research contract is valued at £250,000. The research project aims to develop demographic survey questions and guidance based on the Social Model of Disability.

This tender by the Welsh Government offers opportunities for businesses in the research services sector to compete for a 19-month contract focusing on the development of survey questions aligned with the Social Model of Disability. Businesses specialising in research and development services, consultancy services, and social research services may find this tender well-suited for their expertise. The emphasis on standardised survey questions presents opportunities for businesses to contribute to inclusive research practices and potentially expand their portfolio in the disability research domain.

## Notice

The Welsh Government will award a 19-month research contract for the development and cognitive testing of a set of demographic survey questions and guidance that are consistent with the Social Model of Disability. The aim of the contract is to develop a suite of research questions and response options that reflect the Social Model of Disability and enable a standardised, consistent approach. Concurrently, guidance must be developed which outlines the type of question to use and when. For example, what questions could or should be asked, for what purpose, and in which survey? Research into questions for children and young people as well as adults, would be beneficial and relevant to the Student Health and Well Being surveys, for example, which Welsh Government fund every two years. Research into other models of disability would also need to be undertaken to assess whether there is a need to create a question set based on the Biopsychosocial Model of Disability, for example, in addition to a suite of questions based on the Social Model of Disability.
