About the buyer
The Low Pay Commission is an independent advisory non-departmental public body that advises the government on the National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage. The Commission commissions minimum wage research itself. Open calls carry reference numbers such as LPC 2026/03. Each open call may commission up to three projects. Bidders send clarification questions to the Commission by email. Complete tenders must include every component listed in the invitation to tender. A secretariat of nine staff based in London supports the Commission.
Over the past 5 years, most of the Low Pay Commission's contract awards have been in research and development.
