## Summary

South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority is seeking a supplier to run a representative, longitudinal survey of South Yorkshire residents twice a year. The research will consistently track residents’ perceptions of outcomes set out in the South Yorkshire Strategy. The service combines public-opinion polling, market research and statistical analysis. Survey delivery is across South Yorkshire. This is a single-lot service requirement, suited to providers able to design and deliver recurring resident research and produce reliable results that can be compared over time. The authority is based in Sheffield.

The authority invited offers through an open procedure. The enquiry deadline was 20 November 2026 at 17:00, and the submission deadline was 30 November 2026 at 12:00. The estimated contract period runs from 4 January 2027 to 3 January 2029, with renewal possible up to 3 January 2031, depending on funding and budget availability. The estimated value is £740,000 excluding VAT (£888,000 including VAT). Evaluation gives 65% to quality, 10% to social value and 25% to price. The contract is divided into one lot, and SMEs are considered suitable. An award decision was due by 4 January 2027.

This opportunity suits market research agencies, polling organisations and research consultancies with the capacity to deliver a representative longitudinal survey at twice-yearly intervals across South Yorkshire. Suppliers should be able to design robust survey methods, recruit or reach a representative sample of residents, gather perception-based evidence consistently and analyse results statistically so outcomes can be tracked over time against the South Yorkshire Strategy. The work calls for quality in research design and delivery, alongside a credible social-value offer; price is also assessed. The stated SME suitability makes the requirement accessible to smaller providers with the necessary research expertise and delivery capacity, either independently or through an appropriate delivery partnership.
