ROI TN/22/18 - UPD Research

Details

New Zealand Police are seeking Expressions of Interest (EoI) for TN 22/18 | Understanding Policing Delivery
New Zealand Police has commenced the commissioning of the next three areas of research with the aim of ensuring fair and equitable policing for all our communities. This programme, titled Understanding Policing Delivery, is being overseen by an Independent Panel chaired by Tā Kim Workman.

The research will initially look at three key areas:
• who Police stop and speak to, and how Police engages with them
• decision making around use of force
• decision making around laying charges.

This is a two-stage application process made up of an EoI and shortlisting by an Assessment Panel. For those that meet the assessment criteria, you will be invited to submit a detailed Request for Proposal (RfP). The Assessment Panel will comprise members of the Independent Panel.
The Assessment Panel will consider proposals that seek to undertake specific parts of the research, as well as those proposals that seek to address the research as a whole, involving individuals or organisations. The Assessment Panel encourage collaborative proposals and might decide that several of those who have expressed an interest be invited to work together to submit a joint RfP. These individuals/providers will be advised accordingly.
The research is expected to take place between 2022 and 2024 and will involve a budget of approximately $2 million.
A summary of the application process and research methodology can be found on the Police website here.
To express your interest, and to see the full research application guidelines, please contact UPD@police.govt.nz

EoI submissions are to be received by 5.00pm NZDT Friday 1 July, and must be submitted in electronic format to UPD@police.govt.nz
