In October 2013, Oxford Research was selected as one of 8 organisations to participate in the Framework Contract for the provision of evaluation services of research and innovation programmes and policies of DG Research. The framework contract is multiple meaning that for each contract these 8 organisations are invited to tender. The best proposal wins. The framework contract will run 4 years and the Commission expects to set out contracts for a total of 26 million euro.
Oxford Research manages this contract in consortium with CSES (UK) and Panteia. A large number of ENSR partners participate as subcontractors.
