EFRAG Public call for tenders - Assisting EFRAG in analysing the feedback from its public consultation on Draft ESRS
EFRAG issued, on 29 April 2022, a public consultation on the first set of ESRS EDs.
Respondents to the public consultation are invited to provide input by replying to an online survey managed on the following European Commission webpage and accessible here.
The online questionnaire is designed around multiple choice style questions (but respondents have the ability in most of the cases to provide additional comments) and as well as open questions (with a word limit applied to the response box).
The purpose of the call for tenders is to seek assistance in structuring and analysing the feedback from respondents to the public consultation in a way that allows EFRAG to focus on addressing the issues raised. The tasks of the contractors include the following:
Prepare a statistical report of the input provided by stakeholders through the online survey breaking down the results by exposure draft, questions, types of respondents, country, degree of support to/rejection of the proposal;
Prepare a categorised inventory of the comments received that would textually collect (verbatim) in a structured way all the comments included in the EUSurvey tool or in attached documents without further analysis; and
Provide a structured analysis of the comments, identify emerging themes and structure them to separately present comments that are (a) criticisms, including rationale; (b) suggestions for improvements, including reasons and (c) feedback on prioritisation for standard setting.
The work is to be completed following a timeline set out in the call with the final Report due by Friday 9 September.
The call for tenders can be downloaded here.
The Information Form provided in word version; (to be completed) and the Draft Contract Form (provided for information only not to be completed) are part of the call for tenders.
Tenders, which should include a completed and signed Information Form and all information specifically requested in the call for tenders, should be sent to EFRAG at call.for.tender@EFRAG.ORG; no later than Monday 27 June 2022.
