This project aims to carry out a comprehensive research programme from May to October 2021, focusing on understanding the attitudes and behaviours of Scotland's residents towards domestic tourism, particularly in the context of recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, with a tender submission deadline that expired on 1st April 2021. The contract has been awarded to 56 Degree Insight with a total contract value of £50,000, and the work will be delivered across various locations in Scotland. This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses involved in market research and tourism analytics, given the emphasis on capturing local sentiments toward tourism in a post-pandemic landscape. Companies that specialise in social research, data analysis, or consultancy services within the tourism industry would be particularly well-suited to compete in similar procurements. Engaging in this research not only supports the recovery of the tourism sector but also allows firms to potentially influence future tourist strategies in Scotland by providing invaluable insights to VisitScotland and other stakeholders. ## Notice VisitScotland has appointed an agency to deliver a programme of research during May - October 2021 which will investigate Scotland's residents' attitudes and behaviours towards domestic tourism.
