Summary of the contracting process

The Newry, Mourne and Down District Council has completed the procurement process for their "Coaching for Be Active Programmes and Indoor Leisure Classes" initiative, under tender reference 16/2025. The process utilised an open procedure as per the regulations applicable to Northern Ireland, being a public authority under sub-central government. The procurement aimed to find a delivery partner to provide coaching and related services for sports and health-enhancement programs within the district, particularly across various leisure centres and community locations. This contract has been awarded to Healthy Kidz CIC, with the contract period starting from 7 May 2026 and potentially extending to 6 May 2031, subject to available funding. The contract value is projected to be £2,000,000 (exclusive of VAT) over a maximum period of five years, highlighting a possible increase tied to external funding and Council approvals.

This tender represents substantial opportunities for businesses focused on sports, wellness, and community services, particularly those with expertise in delivering health and physical activity programs. The open procurement process is especially beneficial for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and organisations aiming to expand their service offerings within the public health and leisure sectors. As the awarded entity, Healthy Kidz CIC's role underscores potential for businesses involved in wellness services and those who can provide innovative solutions in leisure management and program delivery to collaborate or compete in future tenders. The requirement for qualified coaching resources and adherence to specified program metrics presents an attractive area for providers with a strong emphasis on quality and community engagement to highlight their capabilities.
