UNIVERSITY OF LIVERPOOL's Research & Development cycle is past due — it ran about every 6 months across 6 notices, and the door is open now. It may re-tender at any time.

31% of UNIVERSITY OF LIVERPOOL’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →

Healthy Urban Places (HUP) at The University of Liverpool (UoL) is seeking a community-based organisation (or organisations) experienced in community engagement, and with established community networks, to collaborate and contribute to “Community Collaboratives” and support the delivery of research for the Healthy Urban Places (HUP) programme.

Healthy Urban Places, funded by UK Research and Innovation and part of Population Health Improvement UK, is exploring how and why local environments (e.g. housing, local amenities, access to jobs, availability of community or social spaces, the way decisions are made or resources invested) influence people’s health and inequalities, through research with communities and local stakeholders.

HUP is establishing a ‘Community Collaboratives’ that brings together communities, researchers and decision-makers in Liverpool and our sister site, Bradford.

Community-based organisations will coordinate community-led research activities in their area and engage local communities and stakeholders.

HUP researchers will provide training on research skills and actively support community organisations to co-produce meaningful research and identify priorities about what makes a healthy place, with the aim influencing place-based changes by sharing these with local, regional and national decision-makers.

The tender will be structured into four Lots based on the local area that the research activities will be undertaken in: Lot 1: Toxteth Lot 2: Speke Lot 3: Croxteth Lot 4: Birkenhead The work will be conducted in five work phase.

These five phases are: Phase 1 – Start-up Phase 2 – Initial Research Phase 3 – Reflect Phase 4 – Further Research Phase 5 – Impact The resulting contract will be 30 months, with the option to extend for 3 months.

The estimated maximum contract value per Lot is £57,000.
