This project aimed to gather insights through professional social surveys from both landlords and tenant farmers in Scotland. The procurement process was initiated under an open method and has now officially concluded, with the contract awarded on 18th September 2017. The procurement was categorised under services, and the budget for this project reached £40,000, with a significant emphasis on quality (70%) over cost (30%) in the evaluation of submissions. The contract is expected to deliver results by analysing qualitative and quantitative data fairly and independently. This procurement provides an opportunity for businesses specialising in social research, surveys, and analysis, particularly those with expertise in agricultural contexts and stakeholder engagement. Companies that focus on qualitative and quantitative research methodologies would be well-positioned to compete for similar forthcoming contracts. With the Scottish Land Commission as the contracting authority, firms that can showcase their experience in handling agricultural and land reform projects will likely find considerable opportunities for growth through future tenders in this domain. ## Notice This project will gather evidence on the views and experiences of landlords and tenants regarding their involvement with professionals engaged to conduct business on agricultural holdings. It will require 2 separate professional social surveys to be undertaken, one seeking the views of landlords and the other seeking the views of tenant farmers. Robust qualitative and quantitative results will be analysed and reported in a fair and independent manner. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Quotes will be evaluated against quality requirements (totalling 70%) and against the costs (30%) submitted as part of this tender. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP296510 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 26 Sep 2017 | | Submission deadline | 13 Sep 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 18 Sep 2017 | | Contract period | 25 Sep 2017 - 17 Jan 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £40,000 | | Lots value | £40,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £25,230 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCOTTISH LAND COMMISSION | | Locality | INVERNESS | | Post town | Inverness | | Postcode | IV1 1SF | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM2 Highlands and Islands | | ITL 3 | TLM20 Highlands and Islands | | Local authority | Highland | | Electoral ward | Inverness Millburn | | Westminster constituency | Inverness, Skye and West Ross-shire | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | RESEARCH RESOURCE | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79310000 - Market research services ## Release History - 26 Sep 2017 at 00:00 - Award - PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP296510 - 15 Aug 2017 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG292504 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG292504&idx=1 15th August 2017 - Statement of Requirements - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG292504&idx=2 15th August 2017 - Terms and Conditions - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG292504 Views and Experiences of Tenant Farmers and Landlords with regard to the Operation of Agents - This project will gather evidence on the views and experiences of landlords and tenants regarding their involvement with professionals engaged to conduct business on agricultural holdings.
