Summary of the contracting process

The South Wales Fire and Rescue Service has engaged in a procurement process titled "Provision of Pantomime Services." The process, categorised under education and training services, involves the development and delivery of a 45-minute pantomime to local schools. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with the contract handed to Bollo Ltd. Key dates include the signing of the contract on 20 February 2025, and the initial project, the 2025 Bernie pantomime, is set to move forward with a three-year contract, extendable by an additional 12 months contingent on funding. The procurement method employed was open, and the buying organisation, headquartered in Llantrisant, underscores commitment to community engagement through these services.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the education, training, and niche entertainment sectors to leverage their expertise and contribute to community engagement initiatives. Suppliers with a focus on youth education services, who can meet the eligibility criteria, including valid enhanced DBS checks, have a strong chance to secure similar contracts as community funding becomes available. This contract notably prefers consortia bidding, creating avenues for collaboration between smaller and specialised companies to work together to deliver impactful community services.
