Description

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) wishes to make estimates of household expenditure on alcoholic beverages as a component of National Accounts and is published separately in Consumer Trends. To assist in these estimates, it wishes to establish fully representative prices of all categories of alcoholic beverages purchased for personal consumption within the United Kingdom. Only purchases made by individuals, from legitimate outlets are to be recorded in the estimates.

The ONS will combine this price data with volume data received from HM Customs and Excise to derive final estimates of household expenditure on alcoholic beverages in the UK.

The ONS is looking for a Supplier who will supply price and volume data to the ONS to fulfil the price requirement of these estimates. This data should represent all On Trade sales of alcoholic beverages by organisations directly to the households, non-household expenditure is not to be included. The alcoholic beverages classified as on trade are those sold for immediate consumption away from the home by hotels, restaurants, cafes, bars, kiosks, street vendors, automatic vending machines, etc. A survey of alcohol consumption from households will not match the data requirements.

This data will be required on a quarterly basis.

The price supplied must reflect what the consumer actually spends, i.e. it is to include value added tax (VAT).

As part of any future tender exercise, the Supplier will be required to provide a detailed description of the sources and methodology used to compile its data. The Supplier will need to show the level of detail at which the raw data are being collected as well as the coverage of outlets used.
