Provision of scheduled and on-request reporting services — network of correspondents — national and EU level

Eurofound — European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions

Eurofound is aiming at the establishment of a network of national and EU-level correspondents providing both scheduled (part 1) and ad hoc reporting (part 2) services. The network shall supply to the European Observatory of Industrial Relations and Working Conditions, to the European Monitoring Centre of Change in the field of employment and restructuring and contribute to further related social policy topics. The network will also assist Eurofound in reaching out to its stakeholders.
Part 1 refers to scheduled reporting services. This part embraces services of a recurring nature which will be scheduled throughout the year. For these services a direct service contract will be awarded to each correspondent.
Part 2 refers to on-request reporting services. This mainly includes services with a less than annual frequency and services where the exact volume is not known in advance. For these services a framework service contract will be awarded to each correspondent. Services may then be requested by Eurofound ad hoc and have to be provided by the correspondent.
