Sets up a framework (suppliers apply to join)

In plain English

Sport Wales wants to set up a pre-approved list of consultants (a 'framework', meaning suppliers can be called off over time without a fresh tender each time) to help develop coaches and the coaching system across Welsh pathway sport. The list has two lots: one for CIMSPA Chartered Coach Developers (CIMSPA is the Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity) who work directly with coaches, and one for system-level consultants such as academics, researchers, learning designers and evaluators. The estimated value is £75,000.

What the buyer wants

• Coach-facing lot: CIMSPA Chartered Coach Developers who can work directly with coaches and advise at system level. • System-level lot: specialists in research, insight, learning design, evaluation, system development or relevant expertise, who can advise National Governing Bodies (NGBs, the sport's UK-wide or national governing organisations), contribute to Sport Wales Think Tanks, and support system development projects. • Suppliers are expected to contribute specialist expertise to the framework's work rather than deliver a single fixed product.

Lots

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The coach-facing lot requires CIMSPA Chartered Coach Developer status, a specific professional qualification that a small business without it, or without a suitably qualified developer on its team, would not be able to meet.

Always check the tender documents.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
