## Summary

The Money and Pensions Service commissioned specialist research into the financial wellbeing of children and young people aged 7–17. The work is a UK-wide quantitative tracking study, designed and delivered by an external research agency. Its findings are intended to inform policy, funding decisions and targeted interventions. This is research services work, rather than the provision of financial products or direct support to young people. The procurement has one requirement covering the research study. The delivery location is recorded as Bedfordshire; the study itself is described as UK-wide, so suppliers would need the capability to conduct research across the UK.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to BMG Research Ltd. The contract was signed on 4 August 2026 and is active, with a value of £600,000. The award is recorded as active. The buyer used a limited procedure to make a call-off from a Crown Commercial Service framework agreement, without publishing a prior call for competition. The award basis was price per quality point. The process covered one requirement: design and delivery of the national tracking study. Four bids were recorded. The award date and contract period are not included in the published data; the signature date is the confirmed contract milestone.

This award shows demand from the Money and Pensions Service for specialist, quantitative research on children’s and young people’s financial wellbeing, with findings intended to support policy and funding decisions. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to design and deliver a UK-wide tracking study focused on 7–17-year-olds, and demonstrate the research capacity to gather reliable quantitative evidence across that population. The buyer used a Crown Commercial Service framework call-off and assessed offers on price per quality point, so suppliers seeking similar work should be able to compete through the relevant framework route and balance cost with research quality. The appointed supplier was BMG Research Ltd; four bids were recorded.
