The brief

The final date and time for the submission of bids is Monday, 11th April 2022 at 11:00.

All tender information MUST be submitted through the Delta eSourcing Portal.

Brief Description of Requirement The Low Pay Commission (LPC) invites tenders from researchers with ideas for new or other research in relation to the National Living Wage (NLW) (and the National Minimum Wage (NMW)).

We are also keen to understand the impact of the recent unprecedented upheaval in the economy and the labour market caused by measures to control the global pandemic.

This has affected some sectors, in particular many low-paying sectors, more than others.

It has also disrupted many of the usual data sources upon which much of our standard analysis depends.

The pandemic has, however, also led to the development of new data sources.

We are therefore keen to consider tenders that can take advantage of these.

Please ensure you review all attached information to ensure a full understanding of this requirement.
