Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh has recently concluded the procurement process for a Media Training Consultancy contract. The project, titled "Media Training Consultancy", falls under the services category, specifically within the education industry. This contract emphasises the provision of tailored media training sessions for staff members, some with prior media engagement experience and others relatively new to it. The contract was procured through an open procedure, with the award signing date on 29th July 2024. The training sessions are expected to take place at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, providing a strategic opportunity for the organisation as it continues to reinforce its public outreach and communication efforts, particularly during the multi-million-pound Edinburgh Biomes initiative.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in media training, communications consultancy, and professional development services. Companies with a strong background in delivering tailored training programmes, especially in the context of public sector and educational institutions, would find this contract particularly suitable. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, given the competitive nature and the diverse scope of consultancy required. By engaging in this procurement opportunity, businesses can contribute to enhancing the media communication skills of a prominent public organisation and potentially secure future collaborations and projects within the expanding Edinburgh Biomes initiative.

Notice Title

Media Training Consultancy

Notice Description

Training for a selection of colleagues at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh will involve close consultation on the individual requirements of individuals, some of whom will have a background of media engagement and others will be relatively new to the experience. While the objective is to prepare all to represent the organisation through effective communications with the media and, therefore, the public, different levels of engagement is likely to be required. It is likely the training might need to be over two sessions.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The outcome will be a fresh insight for all into the workings of the media. For one set, this will include supportive training for their early opportunities, demonstrating how to make the most of different kinds of encounters, such as live and pre-record broadcast and newspaper interviews. For others the experience will bolster previous experience and give a steer on consistency of messaging and staying on topic during difficult questioning. The consultation will take into account the vast raft of subject matter relevant to RBGE as a world leader in plant science and conservation horticulture, a provider of education, arts and events - and a visitor attraction over four sites, with its Edinburgh HQ in the midst of the multi-million-pound Edinburgh Biomes initiative.
