The procurement process, which is currently in the Award stage, began on 18 December 2020 and concluded with the signing of the contract on 16 December 2020. This tender aimed to deliver insights into grocery market trends, particularly in light of the impacts of Brexit and the Covid-19 pandemic. The project is crucial for understanding the economic situation in Scotland as key changes in the market are anticipated before and after the UK's exit from the EU. This opportunity can significantly benefit businesses engaged in market research and consultancy services, particularly those focused on food and drink sectors. Companies that have expertise in providing timely estimates and analysis of shopper behaviour, market dynamics, and economic trends will find a suitable competitive environment. The contract, valued at £24,435, was awarded to Kantar Worldpanel, indicating a demand for suppliers capable of delivering relevant and timely insights that can help shape future strategies in the grocery market. ## Notice Introduction1. The Rural and Environmental Science, and Analytical Services (RESAS) Division within Scottish Government wishes to commission a project to deliver timely estimates of grocery market and shopper behaviour trends in Scotland immediately before and following the UK's exit from the European Union (EU).Background & Context2. With remaining uncertainty of how developments relating to Brexit and the Covid-19 pandemic - as well as their interactions - will impact our economy, supply chains and administrative processes at key hubs over the winter months of 2020/21, it is important for the Scottish Government to have timely indications on the health and stresses faced by the Scotland's economy and industry.3. Demonstrated during the spring months of 2020, key amongst these (both in terms of importance and exposures) is the accessibility and availability of food and drink, as well as the drivers of and resulting changes to Scottish shopper's behaviours.4. To that end, Scottish Government are exploring options to provide timely measures of food spend, consumption, availability and prices. The purpose of this being to support both timely briefings and ad hoc requests for context. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=DEC402516 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Quick Quote Award | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 18 Dec 2020 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 18 Dec 2020 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £24,435 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT | | Additional buyers | EAST DUNBARTONSHIRE COUNCIL; EAST RENFREWSHIRE COUNCIL; FORESTRY AND LAND SCOTLAND; MORAY COUNCIL; NHS LANARKSHIRE; PERTH & KINROSS COUNCIL; SCOTTISH FIRE AND RESCUE SERVICE | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Glasgow | | Postcode | Not specified | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM3 West Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM33 Inverclyde, East Renfrewshire, and Renfrewshire | | Local authority | East Renfrewshire | | Electoral ward | Giffnock and Thornliebank | | Westminster constituency | East Renfrewshire | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 17 | | Supplier names | A.C.T HERITAGE; CHANGEWORKS; CHAS STEWART PLUMBING & HEATING ENGINEERS; GLADE DEER MANAGEMENT; HAMILTONS ENVIRONMENTAL; HARPER MACLEOD; KANTAR WORLDPANEL; LEVENSEAT; MELDRUM CONSTRUCTION (PERTH; MLL TELECOM; ORLO; PHILIPS ELECTRONICS; PINACL SOLUTIONS; R GROOM TREE SERVICES; SWARCO TRAFFIC; SYSTRA; VENESKY BROWN | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 18 Dec 2020 at 11:52 - Award - PCS Notice - Quick Quote Award - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=DEC402516 ## Notice URLs - http://firescotland.gov.uk - http://www.eastdunbarton.gov.uk - http://www.eastrenfrewshire.gov.uk - http://www.moray.gov.uk - http://www.nhslanarkshire.org.uk - http://www.pkc.gov.uk - http://www.scotland.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
