The brief

UK Shared Business Services (UK SBS), on behalf of the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS), Office for Product Safety & Standards (OPSS) wishes to establish a Framework Agreement for the provision of Research Collaboration Network Services.

The Framework has a maximum value of £4,000,000.00 excluding VAT and the Framework term is four years.

The Framework will run on a 1+1+1+1-year basis.

This means the effectiveness of the Framework will be reviewed, and future budget availability considered, towards the end of each financial year (31 March).

This OPSS Research Collaboration Network is being commissioned to support the delivery of the Office for Product Safety & Standards (OPSS) Strategic Research Programme (SRP).

OPSS was established by BEIS in January 2018 in order to enhance protections for consumers and drive forward increased productivity, growth and business confidence.

The OPSS SRP provides high quality, strategic, science-based research to strengthen the evidence base for OPSS policy development, delivery and enforcement.
