The brief

The Low Pay Commission (LPC) sought tenders for research using novel methods or data to analyse the impact of recent increases in the minimum wage.

We are specifically interested in the impacts on employment (and hours), but research may cover a range of other outcomes.

This procurement is for research delivering its final findings in September 2027 with interim findings in September 2026.

If your proposed project could be completed to a shorter timeframe, we strongly encourage you to submit a bid under LPC 2025/05 (Open call for research on the minimum wage).

The estimated maximum cost of the contract was £80,000 (exclusive of VAT; £96,000 including VAT).
