Summary of the contracting process

The PEACEPLUS Multiculturalism to Interculturalism Cross Community Language and Cultural Access Project, managed by Belfast City Council, seeks to deliver a collaborative cross-community language and cultural access initiative across Belfast. This project, classified under education and training services and cultural event organization services, aligns with Northern Irish devolved regulations. The procurement process, initiated as an open competition below threshold, has transitioned to the award stage, with the contract currently active as of 20 April 2026 and set to run until 31 March 2028, with a potential extension to September 2028 pending approval and satisfactory performance. This effort is a component of the broader Belfast PEACEPLUS Local Community Action Plan, supported by the Special EU Programmes Body (SEUPB) and aims at highlighting both indigenous and new linguistic heritages within Belfast.

This project could significantly benefit businesses that specialise in language training, cultural event organisation, or educational services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of catering to varied linguistic needs and engaging in cross-community activities. With a budget of £270,055 and potential gross contract value reaching £324,066, it presents a lucrative opportunity for businesses eager to expand their footprint in public sector services, fostering intercultural dialogue and community enrichment in Northern Ireland. Companies with expertise in delivering high-quality and socially valuable services at competitive costs are well-suited to embrace this opportunity for growth and collaboration with Belfast City Council.
