UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Carmarthenshire County Council is in the planning stage of a public procurement process for the 'Trauma Recovery Model Training' project targeted at Children's Services social workers. This initiative falls under the education and training services industry category and will be implemented in Carmarthenshire, United Kingdom. The estimated contract value is £55,500 with a gross amount of £66,599, and the project's implementation begins on 1 October 2025, ending on 30 September 2028. The early market engagement exercise is scheduled to close on 22 August 2025, inviting potential providers to express interest and gather more information by contacting Laura Quayle. The procurement process follows Welsh devolved regulations and employs the 'light touch' procurement regime, hinting at its suitability for smaller organisations.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for service providers specialising in education, training, and trauma recovery who wish to expand their portfolio within the public sector in Wales. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in the theory and neuroscience behind trauma recovery models, as well as an ability to deliver compliance training, are particularly well-suited to capitalise on this opportunity. The contract's three-year duration and focus on essential training for public service staff could facilitate long-term partnerships and business growth in this niche market. Interested parties have until 8 September 2025 to prepare for the upcoming tender notice release, potentially resulting in a collaborative engagement with Carmarthenshire County Council.
