UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Caerphilly County Borough Council is managing a public procurement process on behalf of Adnodd for the development of educational resources to support teaching and learning in Welsh History, Anti-racism, and Human Rights for ages 14-19. This procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with key locations being Hengoed and Cardiff in the United Kingdom. This opportunity falls under the industry categories of printed matter and related products, IT services, and education and training services. Interested bidders have the chance to engage through a pre-market webinar scheduled to take place online by 29th January 2026. The commissioning process offers substantial contract opportunities and aligns with the Curriculum for Wales, focusing on literacy, equity, anti-racism, and well-being, with digital resources expected to be developed by 1st March 2027. A future procurement notice is expected by 16th February 2026.

This tender offers significant opportunities for growth, especially for businesses specialising in bilingual digital resource creation, educational content development, and organisations with a focus on equity and anti-racism. Businesses operating in the sectors of education services, IT services, or printed materials will find this project particularly aligned with their expertise. Furthermore, as the procurement encourages participation from SMEs, smaller enterprises or startups within the educational sector stand to benefit, with the opportunity to secure contracts in multiple lots amounting to a total value of approximately £400,000 including VAT. Participating in this tender can enhance a company's portfolio and provide increased visibility within the public sector.
