UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Pembrokeshire County Council commissioned a consultancy review of its leisure services operating model. The work concerns the way the council’s leisure services are organised and operated, combining leisure-sector and business consultancy expertise. The relevant service categories cover recreational, cultural and sporting services, together with business and management consultancy. Delivery is for Pembrokeshire County Council in Pembrokeshire, Wales. The procurement covered one requirement rather than separate service packages. It is therefore relevant to consultancies that assess public leisure provision, review operating models and advise public authorities on service design, governance or commercial arrangements. Specialist firms working across leisure, local government and organisational consultancy would be the closest fit, particularly where they can bring together sector understanding and structured business analysis.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. Fathom Consultancy Solutions Limited was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 11 August 2026, runs from 24 August 2026 to 30 November 2026, and has a value of £30,666.87 excluding VAT, or £36,800 gross. The contract is active. The requirement was evaluated through the limited-competition route, with one completed lot covering the leisure services operating-model review. The published outcome identifies the award as a services contract for Pembrokeshire County Council. This is a short, defined consultancy engagement rather than a long-term operational services contract, with the supplier engaged to review and advise on the council’s leisure-services model.

This outcome indicates demand from Pembrokeshire County Council for specialist advice on the operating model of publicly delivered leisure services. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need demonstrable experience reviewing leisure, recreational or sporting services, alongside the ability to analyse business models and translate findings into practical advice for a local authority. Relevant strengths would include understanding public-sector governance, service delivery arrangements and the commercial implications of different operating options. The award also shows that the buyer used a below-threshold limited competition, so suppliers seeking similar work with this council would benefit from being readily identifiable to its procurement and service teams, with a concise record of comparable leisure-sector consultancy work and the capacity to deliver a focused review for a Welsh local authority.
