Description
***** THIS IS AN AWARD NOTICE, NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION *****
This procurement is being concluded following a mini competition under the CCS RM6126 Research & Insights DPS.
Brief Description of Requirement
The Office for Product Safety & Standards (OPSS), a Directorate within the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) has commissioned a study to support the development of its information and evidence base for the regulation of construction products.
OPSS is developing a wide-ranging evidence basis for construction products by developing a research strategy and commissioning projects that aim to provide a better understanding of the sector and OPSS's role within it. We have to date commissioned projects analysing specific parts of the system, such as supply chains and a review of incident databases. What is evident is that the construction product landscape is complex and that understanding the current environment will be key to ensure that construction products can be effectively regulated.
Therefore, as part of that continued knowledge building, OPSS have developed a project that aims to understand the construction product regulations in more depth by looking at the past and the present.
This project aims to:
- To understand the past and present with regards to the current regulatory regime (CPR 2011)
- To understand and summarise the proposals of the EU with regards to the current CPR regime
