## Summary

The Health and Safety Executive, situated in Liverpool, United Kingdom, has completed a procurement for "The Provision of Approved Documents Review Digital Research". Initiated through a direct procurement method below the competition threshold, this process targeted research and development services, including a consultancy aspect. The procurement, which commenced on 12th March 2026 and concluded by 31st July 2026, aimed to audit documentation, test technical assumptions, and develop a prototype guidance microsite. The contract, awarded on 26th March 2026, included key delivery across various regions in the UK.

This procurement presents opportunities for businesses engaged in research and development, particularly those specialising in digital research and consultancy services. Given its focus on reviewing approved documents and developing digital prototypes, businesses with expertise in technical audit and user experience development may find the scope of work complementary to their service offerings. As the contract was awarded to THE STATIONERY OFFICE LIMITED, businesses fitting the profile of SMEs with a significant presence or capacity for regional delivery may also wish to explore similar opportunities within central government procurements.

## Notice

The research will focus on three core strands. These will audit the approved documentation, test technical assumptions through workshops, and identify the features required. Insights from this work will feed into both an interim and a final report for BSR. Alongside the research, a clickable prototype of the guidance microsite will be developed to test assumptions and validate the defined requirements with end users of Approved Documents.
