What the notice says

Staffordshire County Council are looking to commission a research provider to undertake a retrospective cohort study to determine the effectiveness of the health visiting services provided to Staffordshire residents. The study will look at the outcomes of a representative sample of the 8000+ babies born in 2021/22 who's parents have accessed health visiting services. The provider will need to navigate ethics and data protection requirements in order to access relevant intelligence. The procurement is expected to take place in the new academic year, with the contract commencing in January 2027. Further details, funding, and timescales are yet to be determined based on findings of this pre-market engagement. If you are interested in discussing this opportunity further, then we would like to hear from you as we shape the research specification. Please contact [email removed] or [email removed] before 11th September 2026
