    Brief

    The Food Standards Authority (FSA) is seeking an experienced research agency to deliver four annual waves (13-16) of the Food and You 2 survey, an official statistic measuring consumer attitudes, knowledge, and behaviour regarding food safety and standards. The survey samples approximately 4,000 households across England, Northern Ireland, and Wales, with an additional 1,000 households in Scotland managed separately by Food Standards Scotland. The contract encompasses five key stages: (1) questionnaire development and survey materials creation; (2) fieldwork execution including distribution of invite letters and incentives; (3) data processing and validation; (4) production of data files and comprehensive documentation; and (5) delivery of final outputs including aggregate data tables, findings reports, and analysis. The survey provides critical evidence supporting FSA strategic objectives, policy decision-making, public communication campaigns, and identification of emerging research priorities. Suppliers are encouraged to bid for complete delivery including data tables and reporting production.
