## Summary

This procurement process by Sport England, a sub-central government public authority based in Loughborough, UK, involved the delivery of small area estimates related to physical activity for the Active Lives survey year 2024-25. The project aimed to provide detailed demographic breakdowns of activity and inactivity levels for middle and lower super output areas (MSOAs and LSOAs). Substance 2005 Limited, located in Manchester, was awarded the contract through a direct award procurement method, with a focus on technical reasons. The procurement stage is at the Award stage, with the contract period running from 31st July 2026 to 18th November 2026. The total contract value is £15,420, and it falls under the services category, specifically research services.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in data analysis, demographic research, and physical activity insights. Companies with expertise in survey data handling and those familiar with the Active Lives survey methodology would be well-positioned for such opportunities. Additionally, businesses that can develop partnerships with local authorities and Active Partnerships to leverage these data insights for targeted resource allocation will find this contract particularly advantageous for growth and collaboration.

## Notice

The supplier will deliver small area estimates of activity and inactivity for MSOAs and LSOAs for adults for Active Lives survey year 2024-25. This will include demographic breakdowns of these small area estimates by age, gender, disability, socio-economic status and ethnicity. The supplier will also produce a technical report detailing the methods used. The main purpose of the work is to enable partners such as Active Partnerships and Local Authorities to have more detailed insights into local levels of activity and inactivity than are possible through direct Active Lives Survey estimates, in order to target their resources effectively.
