Description

The Panel will cover four waves of research (one per year over four years from 2025 to 2028) comprising 30 tele-depth interviews and 1,500 quantitative telephone interviews across GB.

As a rolling project it is envisaged that consultation via the Panel will occur roughly every12 months depending on the necessity to consult. However, we request the prospective suppliers consider provision to accommodate changes to this timetable (if requested by CITB). Flexibility in the delivery of the Panel is paramount. The anticipated fieldwork dates (main stage quantitative) for the next four waves of Panel research are (month of fieldwork):

•Wave 25: June 2025
•Wave 26: April 2026
•Wave 27: May 2027
•Wave 28: June 2028

The Quarterly Dip Survey comprising 100 telephone interviews will continue to follow calendar quarters from Q1 2025 to Q4 2028. The pattern of operation to date has been for the questionnaire to be developed during the second month of the quarter, with fieldwork following in the third month of the quarter, and results being available two weeks after the quarter end.

Both the Panel and the Dip will cover Construction Contracting and Building Professional Services firms.
