Other Information

Our PAS supplier or consortium must have expertise in survey research, in particular so-called 'push-to-web-surveys,' strong science communication credentials and highly regarded networks across government, the research and innovation sector, and media. We want PAS to inspire debate and activity among policy makers, researchers, innovators, public engagement and sci-comm practitioners, and the media. The successful supplier will need to create outputs which are disseminated in a creative and ambitious way which creates significant, far-reaching impacts. This iteration of PAS will be based around the same set of core questions asked in 2019 and additional questions based on discussion with UKRI. The three waves of PAS will need to support the trend series while facilitating notable changes to the survey mode, survey frequency, and survey sample size. The successful supplier will deliver three waves of an online PAS survey. The estimated contract value is £1.2 million exclusive of VAT to deliver a minimum of 3,000 completed questionnaires in each of the three waves. There will be break clauses and review stages in the contract between each Wave to enable UKRI to manage the contract and its budget. PS24043 Contract Redacted.pdf
