Summary of the contracting process

The contract for the Welsh Public Sector Procurement Centre of Excellence - Alpha/Beta has been awarded to Posterity Global Group Ltd by Llywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government. This service contract focuses within the industry category of professional services, with work primarily occurring remotely; however, occasional travel to sites in Wales is anticipated. The procurement process is currently in the 'Award' stage, with the contract period having begun on 11 October 2022 and now extending until 31 January 2026 following a modification. The contract was valued at GBP 1,500,000, and its delivery will occur in two distinct phases: Alpha on a fixed price basis and Beta on a time and materials basis.

This procurement initiative presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in procurement, consultancy, or related professional services wishing to establish their presence in the public sector. By contributing to the establishment of a Centre of Excellence, businesses can leverage this platform to showcase their skills in building commercial capabilities and facilitate knowledge sharing within the procurement community. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in conducting skills programmes and advancing procurement practices would be particularly well-suited to compete for such opportunities as they arise with similar government-led projects.
