title: Contract to conduct online influencer research and outreach for BIS

description: 1.1 The Department, in conjunction with the Prime Minister, launched the Business in You campaign in January 2012 to inspire and encourage business growth and start-ups in the UK. 1.2 The Business in You campaign (the campaign) currently drives awareness mainly through above-the-line advertising, but must identify an alternative, cost-effective way to drive awareness over the long term. As such, the campaign now seeks to engage online partners with online and offline activity, in keeping with the Government’s digital strategy. 1.3 The campaign is looking to identify and connect with online influencers that either publish relevant content already, or target relevant audiences and may carry Business in You messaging. 1.4 There is a specific goal of reaching local and regional influencers that will give the campaign presence and longevity in smaller markets across the UK. 2. Overview of the Business in You Campaign and Progress to Date 2.1 The Government’s top priority is to achieve sustainable and balanced growth. The “Business in You” campaign was launched by the Prime Minister in January 2012. The national campaign, running throughout 2012, is based on the concept that there is a “business in everyone.” 2.2 The campaign brings together and highlights the range of Government and private sector initiatives providing support and advice to entrepreneurs and small businesses. It showcases real life small business owners who come from a wide range of backgrounds, and each has an inspiring story of how they turned their passion into their livelihood. 2.3 Business in You reaches across all parts of government to link up relevant tools and resources, making it easy for businesses to find the information they need from advice about mentoring, hints about securing finance and taking on new staff as well as new government initiatives such as Start-Up Loans. The campaign aims to enable existing businesses to grow and to encourage others to start their own companies by increasing awareness of the support available. 2.4 The campaign is a multi-media advertising campaign which ran in February and March on radio, online in selected national and trade press and on outdoor poster sites in London and the major cities. This first phase has been extended through further digital advertising in April and a media partnership with Channel 4 and The Guardian kicking off at the end of April and running through May. A direct mail campaign, through electronic and postal mailings, is ongoing. The initial phase of the campaign targeted both start-ups and growth businesses. To date the website has had more than 220,000 visits, and over 15,000 people have signed up to receive email updates. 2.5 In July there was a further wave of activity which targeted established businesses with a message around growth. Radio and digital advertising featured real life case studies talking about how through taking on more staff and seeking business mentors, they had successfully grown their business. 2.6 Further activity is planned for the autumn onwards and the focus will continue to be on messages around business growth. Regional and local press has been identified as a relevant and trusted channel to speak to the SME audience. 2.7 There is now some evidence of people using Business in You in their own communications, for example embedding our digital content in blogs or adopting the #businessinyou hashtag. 3. Objectives for proposed research and outreach There are a number of objectives set out for this piece of work. These are: • Identify and establish contact with online influencers and partners; • Develop a strategy and recommendations for ongoing on- and off-line communications with influencers; • Increase visibility of the Business in You campaign within regional markets who will share the campaign messages with local audiences; • Provide longevity for the campaign by building relationships with key people who will continue to carry the messages beyond the lifespan of above-the-line campaign activity and in local markets; • Develop an approach to reaching new audiences that is proactive and fits strategically within wider communications and activity; and • Integrate digital outreach activity with the work we do with our existing corporate partners. 4. Scope of Work that the Adviser will be required to do (a) Conducting research including but not limited to: • Online influencers covering messages relevant to the SME audience • Credibility and reach of influencer’s channels (b) Preparation of documentation including but not limited to: • List of keywords to be used in research activity • List of between 60-80 influential and relevant individuals and organisations • Recommendations on top influencers to engage with • Strategy for outreach and ongoing engagement via on- and off-line activity • Post-activity report on success of engagement activity (c) Process including but not limited to: • If requested, in-person meeting with BIS to provide introduction to the campaign and related ongoing activity • Attending team update calls/meetings • If requested, management of the outreach process

title: PO 6073 - Independent Evaluation of the replacement of malaria monotherapy drugs in the private sector to support the containment of drug resistant malaria in Burma

description: The new generation of malaria drugs, artemisinin combination therapies (ACTs) provide a highly effective cure for the most dangerous malaria in most countries; helping to reduce the global burden of malaria by more than half in 43 countries over the past 10 years. This global progress is now threatened by the emergence of malaria that shows resistance to artemisinin. Artemisinin resistant malaria, first detected on the Thai-Cambodia border and then Vietnam, now occurs in eastern Burma. In response, Burma has developed the Myanmar Artemisinin Resistance Containment Framework (referred to as ‘MARC’), with support from the Ministry of Health and key non-governmental implementing partners of malaria control. The MARC comprises a comprehensive set of interventions from prevention of malaria and testing and treatment with ACTs. The MARC prioritises five complementary areas for interventions: community-based malaria diagnosis and treatment; replacement of oral artemisinin monotherapy (AMT) in the private sector; a legal ban of AMT; insecticide treated bed nets and screening and malaria treatment for mobile populations. This strategy is in line with the World Health Organization’s Global Plan for Artemisinin Resistance Containment (GPARC) . Routine monitoring is outside the scope of the services required from the IEA. PSI have included the full costs of monitoring in their programme. They will establish clear baseline data, monitor progress against milestones and targets in the Log Frame and provide progress and annual reports. This includes the use of routine data collection systems and surveys to monitor the programme. The Independent Evaluation Agency will be required to assess that the baseline data is relevant and adequate and that data collection tools and methods (particularly surveys) to ensure this routine information can support data requirements for programme evaluation.

An Outcomes Framework was adopted in 2011, through which the present Government established its priorities for global health and clear outcomes to be achieved by 2015. This Framework focuses on three key areas for action: 1. Global Health Security 2. International Development 3. Trade for Better Health. Collaborative working between UK government departments, as well as between the UK Government and a range of partners is integral to the approach.

The review provided a set of recommendations with operational relevance, which have informed our subsequent work. This year’s review look at how well we are working across government to embed the principles and achieve the outcomes identified in the Health is Global Outcomes framework, with a particular (but not exclusive) focus on Global Health Security. This focus was identified in consultation with the cross-government steering group which supports and helps to deliver the strategy.

title: Assessing the evidence base in relation to the impact of pornography on children and young people: A literature review

description: This research project is designed to inform the Office of the Children’s Commissioner’s Inquiry into Child Sexual Exploitation in Gangs and Groups (CSEGG). Since its launch in October 2011, the CSEGG Inquiry has embarked on an evidence gathering process to understand the scale, scope, extent and nature of child sexual exploitation in gangs and groups. This process has begun to uncover a number of issues that the OCC needs to unpick and understand: one of these is whether accessing and viewing pornography is having an impact of children and young people’s expectations and attitudes towards sexual activity and relationships. The OCC has been made aware that there is a significant gap within academic literature and research in relation to children and young people’s use of online pornography in general, and their viewing of extreme or violent pornography more specifically. And yet, interviews with professionals over the course of the CSEGG Inquiry have unearthed consistent concerns about the impact of pornography, which has also been reflected by the media and wider public debate (Perry 2012, Flood 2009). This is not a question about the impact of adults viewing images indecent and abusive images of children and those who commit contact abuse of children. We are also aware that research exists which indicates that a causal link cannot be established between viewing indecent and abusive images of children and perpetrating contact child abuse. Rather, we are interested in whether evidence exists of the impact on children of viewing pornography in general, including that which is extreme and violent, in relation to children’s attitudes and expectations for sexual contact. In turn, the OCC wants to understand whether access to pornography sends messages to children and young people about sexual violence and consent, which may impact upon harmful attitudes associated with sexual exploitation. At this stage we are aware that there are ethical and time constraints for producing the answers to all of these questions. However, to begin the process the OCC is keen to learn about what evidence exists, or can be drawn upon within academic and other literature, in relation to children and young people’s use of pornography. The findings of this research will inform the CSEGG Inquiry Chair, Panel and Project Team, and the recommendations made in the final CSEGG Inquiry report, in relation to the remedial action required to tackle child sexual exploitation in gangs and groups.

title: Invitation to tender for piloting of provision of pre-scoping briefing papers to support the development of clinical guidelines

description: The Centre for Clinical Practice (CCP) is responsible for the development of clinical guidelines and quality standards. A core library of quality standards and guideline topics for development over the next 4 years is currently being agreed. It takes approximately 2 years to develop a full clinical guideline and associated quality standard. Our process for developing a guideline is rigorous. Details can be found in the Guidelines Manual 2009 on the NICE website at http://www.nice.org.uk/aboutnice/howwework/developingniceclinicalguidelines/clinicalguidelinedevelopmentmethods/GuidelinesManual2009.jsp The first step in developing a clinical guideline is preparing the scope. This provides a framework within which to conduct the guideline development work. The purpose of the scope is to: •provide an overview of what the clinical guideline will include, and what will not be covered •set the boundaries of the development work and provide a clear framework to enable the work to stay within the priorities agreed by NICE •identify the key clinical issues to inform the literature search strategy •provide information to healthcare professionals, stakeholders and the public about the expected content of the guideline The key stages in preparing the scope are: • Stage 1: selecting key clinical issues and drafting the scope • Stage 2: checking the selected key clinical issues with stakeholders • Stage 3: consulting on the draft scope • Stage 4: finalising the scope after consultation The purpose of the pre-scoping briefing paper is to provide baseline information to support the early stages of scope preparation. The pre-scoping briefing paper should provide an overview of: • epidemiology relevant to the disease or condition • current models of service delivery in primary, secondary and tertiary care • variations in service delivery • current clinical practice • variations in clinical practice • the main challenges that service providers face in managing the disease or condition • cost impact or value for money issues • aspects of care that people living with the disease or condition have identified as being important or of concern to them • health inequalities associated with the disease or condition • patient safety issues The Institute is now inviting expressions of interest from organisations that would like to to provide 20 pre-scoping briefing papers for guideline topics (including acute and chronic, cancer, mental health, and women and children’s topics) by 31st March 2012.

title: Recruitment Agency: Admin & Customer Service

description:
The GMC uses the services of recruitment agencies for the provision of some temporary and permanent staff. We are inviting tenders for the supply of permanent and temporary financial administration staff, general administration staff, contact centre staff and face-to-face customer service/ advisory roles.

 This will be broken down into two lots:

 Lot A is for the supply of permanent staff and temporary workers to our Manchester office in general administration, contact centre and financial administration roles.

 Lot B is for the supply of permanent staff and temporary workers to our London office in general administration and face to face customer service/ advisory roles.

 We expect to award contracts to four providers, two per lot, who can supply each location with all disciplines. However, no guarantees of any work or particular volumes of work will ensue in relation to the appointment of the panel.

 On average in 2011, we had 87 temporary workers per month across both Manchester and London. This includes both long-term and short-term cover assignments. Providers should note that our strategic objective is to reduce costs without impacting on our operational requirements.

 In the main, the GMC recruits for permanent or fixed-term staff directly seeking agency support for specific roles.

 Further separate tendering exercises will follow over the coming months. Please see the GMC website for further details.
