## Summary

Perth & Kinross Council commissioned market research for the Perth Transport Futures City Centre programme. The work is to gather a representative sample of public opinion on support for the principles behind potential changes to transport and public spaces in Perth city centre. The findings are intended to inform council officers’ recommendations on the programme’s direction and form part of a wider consultation and engagement programme. This is a market research service (CPV 79310000), rather than construction or delivery of transport infrastructure. The buying organisation is Perth & Kinross Council, and the research concerns Perth city centre. The tender used the Scottish Government Marketing Services Framework Agreement’s market research lot for a mini-competition.

The procurement has been awarded to Jump Research, and an active contract is recorded. The award value is £32,130. The award date and contract period are not provided in the available process information. The competition was run as a mini-competition through the Scottish Government Marketing Services Framework Agreement, restricted to suppliers on its market research lot. Two bids were recorded. The stated requirement centres on collecting a representative public-opinion sample about agreement with principles for possible transport and public-realm changes; the research supports recommendations on the wider Perth Transport Futures programme. No separate lots, eligibility requirements or evaluation criteria are set out in the process information.

For suppliers competing for comparable future research commissioned by Perth & Kinross Council, this award shows demand for evidence-gathering on public attitudes to proposed city-centre transport and public-realm changes. A credible competitor would need to design and deliver research capable of producing a representative sample of public opinion, and to measure agreement with a defined set of programme principles. The work also sits within a broader consultation and engagement programme, so suppliers should be able to produce findings that can inform strategic recommendations rather than only report raw responses. The route used was a mini-competition under the Scottish Government Marketing Services Framework Agreement’s market research lot; framework access is therefore relevant to competing through the same route.
