This procurement is categorised under services and is taking place in Edinburgh, with the tender period having closed on 18th March 2019. The procurement method is open, allowing wide participation, and the contract value is set at £81,773. The award for this tender was finalised on 2nd April 2019. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in research and analysis services, as well as organisations that specialise in team dynamics and collective identity within academic or research environments. Companies with a focus on public sector contracts and expertise in the education and medical research fields would be well-positioned to leverage this opportunity, potentially partnering with universities or public research institutes to enhance their offerings. ## Notice The research aim of this project is to analyse how the 5 MRPs who are the main members of the SEFARI consortium currently relate to their collective identity as SEFARI, how they benefit from the collective identity, and how the SEFARI identity can best contribute to the next cycle of funding (2021 onwards) alongside the MRPs, CoEs and other bodies. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The research objectives for this project are as follows: Determine the spectrum of research and other activity in the MRPs and the contribution of RESAS-funded research to their activity and operation, compared to other relevant organisations (e.g. comparator research institutes, CoEs, HEIs); Analyse how the MRPs currently relate these activities to their collective identity as SEFARI, and how they benefit from this collective identity, compared to other networks of similar institutes (e.g. former BBSRC National Institutes of Bioscience; CSIRO; INRA); Synthesise, given these results, the likely constraints and opportunities for future RESAS-funded research; Propose potential modifications to the commissioning of the next cycle of funding (2021 onwards) to deliver the best outcomes. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR350180 | | 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 | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 2 Apr 2019 | | Submission deadline | 18 Mar 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 2 Apr 2019 | | Contract period | 8 Apr 2019 - 31 Mar 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £81,773 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT | | Additional buyers | UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH11 3XD | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM1 East Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM13 City of Edinburgh | | Local authority | City of Edinburgh | | Electoral ward | City Centre | | Westminster constituency | Edinburgh East and Musselburgh | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73200000 - Research and development consultancy services ## Release History - 2 Apr 2019 at 00:00 - Award - PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR350180 - 18 Feb 2019 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=FEB345622 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=FEB345622&idx=1 18th February 2019 - ITT Docs - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=FEB345622&idx=2 18th February 2019 - ESPD Document - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=FEB345622&idx=3 18th February 2019 - FAQs - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=FEB345622 RESAS/018/18 - Structure-function analysis of SEFARI - The research aim of this project is to analyse how the 5 MRPs who are the main members of the SEFARI consortium currently relate to their collective identity as SEFARI, how they benefit from the collective identity, and how the SEFARI identity can best contribute to the next cycle of funding (2021 onwards) alongside the MRPs, CoEs and other bodies. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR350180 RESAS/018/18 - Structure-function analysis of SEFARI - The research aim of this project is to analyse how the 5 MRPs who are the main members of the SEFARI consortium currently relate to their collective identity as SEFARI, how they benefit from the collective identity, and how the SEFARI identity can best contribute to the next cycle of funding (2021 onwards) alongside the MRPs, CoEs and other bodies. ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.ed.ac.uk/schools-departments/procurement/supplying - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk - http://www.scotland.gov.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000574228 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
