Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Culture Media & Sport (DCMS) has recently completed a tender process titled "Advice on Governance, Assurance and Risk" in the consultancy sector. The competitive procurement, classified under business services, was executed using a direct procurement method as a single tender action, and the contract was awarded on 6th July 2020, with a total value of £30,000. The project aimed to strengthen DCMS's overall assurance framework and standardise controls within the organisation. The contract period was from 12th July 2020 to 20th October 2020, and all activities were based in London (SW1A 2BQ).

This tender presents opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSE) that specialise in governance, assurance, and risk consulting. Businesses with a strong understanding of public sector processes and an ability to deliver tailored consulting services would be well-suited to compete in similar future procurement activities. The prior successful delivery of outcomes related to governance frameworks could particularly enhance a company's prospect of securing contracts with governmental organisations like the DCMS.
