Office for National Statistics awarded a contract to IQVIA LTD for the supply and management of an integrated service for the COVID-19 Infection Survey (CIS) across England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.

The contract, valued at £230,000,000, covers the provision of trained study workers including phlebotomists, data and management information, contact centre operations, and courier, logistics, and warehousing services.
