Description

The National Quantum Technologies Programme (NQTP) was a government initiative launched in 2013 to advance quantum technologies, including computing, sensing, and communications, in the UK. The program has received over £1 billion in funding, aiming to position the UK as a global leader in quantum science. It focuses on research, industry partnerships, and commercialization, driving scientific advancements and economic growth through groundbreaking quantum technologies.
We would like to invite proposals for the end-of-programme evaluation of the NPL Quantum Programme (2020-24). The purpose of this evaluation will be: 1) to collate and generate  evidence to substantiate impact from the programme which would help NPL secure funding for subsequent phases; 2) to refine evidence submission to the upcoming Spending Review; and 3) to provide a clear picture of successes, shortcomings, and potential areas of growth that would inform future programmes.

As such, the key audience for this evaluation would be NPL's primary funder, the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT), along with NPL's internal staff and management. Outputs from the evaluation will also be used for stakeholder engagement activities and broader marketing purposes.

RFQ_128875 - Study on Better Evidencing Impacts Attributable to NMS Laboratories' Work in Nanomedicines

The National Measurement System (NMS) provides the UK with an infrastructure of laboratories that deliver world-class measurement science and technology and provide traceable and accurate standards of measurement. The NMS focuses on major societal challenges, through the set-up of challenge areas which sit across measurement science functions. One of these challenge areas is 'Life Science and Health,' which aims to improve standards and methods across healthcare, contribute towards development and adoption of healthcare technologies through standardisation, and improve the delivery of healthcare services while helping to reduce costs. This RFQ invites applications for one of the four short-term health impacts studies that were identified by Ipsos in the scoping study. This study will aim to quantify the extent to which the work done by NMS laboratories (NPL and NML) in the field of nanotechnology enables growth among UK-based companies operating in this space, particularly nanomedicines To express interest in this tender please use the below URL.

OVAWG Secondary Data Analysis and Literature Review

Ofcom has a requirement for secondary data analysis and an academic-style literature review relating to one or more of the following research areas: a) The relationship between online and offline VAWG, recognising that online violence is often the manifestation of offline violence. b) Niche websites, particularly in relation to pornography. c) Perpetrator research, particularly in relation to motivations and mitigations, including online and offline media literacy interventions. d) Technology abuse in the UK, specifically, more granular data about which technologies and functionalities are used to facilitate abuse and whether there are patterns with particular platform usage. e) How gender-based abuse is affected by individual vulnerabilities, including attitudinal and experiential characteristics, as well as demographics. This would include the need for more nuanced tools to explore intersectionality (not just frequency data). f) International perspectives on the extent to which experiences and practices in the UK echo or differ from those in other countries, to inform policy in relation to standardisation. Tenderers may bid for either or both of the following Lots: Lot 1: Secondary data analysis This involves quantitative and/or qualitative analysis and associated write-up of one or more defined data sets, either from public sources or those sourced by the Provider, to provide insight into the research areas defined above, and produce a report on the results (of between 15,000 and 20,000 words). Up to two contracts will be awarded under Lot 1. The estimated value per contract is in the range of £9,000 to £12,500 ex VAT.

Lot 2 Academic-style literature review Each review should comprise an evidenced-based, well-referenced literature review, of between 20,000 and 25,000 words, that meets the research areas identified above. We expect the work to draw upon existing knowledge, research, and analysis on these topics, ensuring that the literature review is original and has not been previously published. Up to three contracts will be awarded under Lot 2. The estimated value per contract is in the range of £3,000 to £5,000 ex VAT. Please note that, whilst not the only criterion, pricing is a key element of our evaluation criteria.
