Summary of the contracting process

Sport Wales procured a closed framework for education consultancy supporting its sport and education activities. The requirement covers research and development consultancy, education and training services (CPV 73000000 and 80000000), delivered across Wales. Sport Wales is the buying organisation. The framework is intended for consultants and organisations able to provide specialist education advice, research, training and related consultancy services for the buyer’s needs. It is a services procurement rather than a goods or construction opportunity. The framework operates across Wales and can support requirements commissioned by Sport Wales under its education consultancy programme. Suppliers considering similar work should be able to deliver education-focused consultancy and associated research or training services at national Welsh scale.

The procurement is complete and the framework contract is active. Sport Wales used an above-threshold open procedure, with one lot and a framework arrangement involving further competition when requirements are called off. The tender was valued at £800,000 excluding VAT (£960,000 including VAT). The contract was awarded on 21 July 2026 to PE Scholar Ltd, Cardiff Met Company Ltd, Miller Research (UK) Ltd, Jan English Consultancy, Future Action Ltd, Karen Rhys Jones, University of Wales Trinity Saint David, Sheffield Polytechnic, Ymg Lafan Cyf and Hopscotch Consulting Ltd. The contract was signed on 28 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 9 August 2030. Evaluation weighted quality, including service provision and experience, at 80%, and commercial pricing and fees at 20%.

This award demonstrates recurring demand from Sport Wales for education consultancy combining research, education and training services. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable experience of delivering comparable education consultancy, with strong evidence of service provision and relevant past experience. The evaluation placed substantially greater emphasis on quality than price, so suppliers should be able to show a clear, reliable delivery model and the expertise to meet Sport Wales’s education-related requirements. Commercial capability remains important because pricing and fees formed the remaining evaluation element. The framework’s further-competition model means suppliers would also need to respond effectively to individual requirements as they arise, rather than relying only on admission to a standing list. Organisations with education, research, training and consultancy capability are the closest fit.
