What do buyers ask for in research and evaluation contracts?

Can a small business win research and evaluation contracts?
Often, yes. 4 of the 5 live tenders in the East of England are marked by the buyer as suitable for small businesses, and 1 is a framework or dynamic purchasing system (approved supplier lists that buyers then order from). Smaller lots and lower-value contracts are usually the best place to start. Check the minimum turnover and insurance first, as those are the checks that rule most bids out.
05Expert notes: Professional services
Professional services are often bought through frameworks and evaluated mainly on quality: named staff, case studies and method statements. Professional indemnity insurance levels are a common pass/fail check.
