This initiative aims to empower athletes to drive positive change in society and is part of UK Sport's strategic plan. The procurement method is an open procedure, with a contract value of £100,000 GBP. The tender deadline is on May 5, 2023, and the contract period will be from June 1, 2023, to May 31, 2025. Businesses in the development consultancy services industry, particularly those interested in social impact projects in the UK, are well-suited to compete for this opportunity. This tender from the United Kingdom Sports Council presents an opportunity for businesses to partner with a prestigious organisation to deliver an athlete capacity building initiative. Suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with an interest in social impact, the procurement process is currently in the tender stage. Interested parties can contact Josh.Saydraouten@uksport.gov.uk to express their interest. The initiative aims to create a positive impact through sports, providing a platform for athletes to drive change in society while competing and beyond. ## Notice UK Sport's new strategic plan outlines that 'we will harness the power and platform of sport to drive positive change across wellbeing, diversity, inclusion and sustainability; walking the walk and using our voice to inspire others to act'. In addition to our own ambition to inspire positive change, we know from two separate pieces of research conducted by UK Sport that: * 86% of funded athletes would like to use their platform to make a difference to society while they are still competing. * Two in three adults believe that athletes have a role to play in championing causes they believe in and raising awareness of social issues. In understanding how we might support funded athletes to have greater ownership of how they can use their platform and voice to power positive change, in 2022/23 we tendered to find an organisation to partner with UK Sport to deliver an athlete capacity building initiative. The purpose of this initiative was to develop an athlete's individual knowledge, skills, and confidence to become an effective agent of change. This pilot intervention was known as Powered by Purpose. After a successful pilot, delivered in partnership with The True Athlete Project, UK Sport is now seeking to scale up the delivery of Powered by Purpose by entering into a multi-year agreement with a delivery partner. Inputs and contract details The appointed provider will be required to sign a UK Sport contract (includes data protection and confidentiality clauses) at the outset of the contract. The successful supplier will work closely with relevant colleagues within the UK Sport Social Impact Team to ensure the successful implementation of the initiative. Noting the successful supplier will be responsible for the day-to-day management and operations of the programme. ************************************ To express interest in this opportunity, please e-mail Josh.Saydraouten@uksport.gov.uk ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2ebe4c52-872f-42ce-844f-c3adac58875e | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 6 Apr 2023 | | Submission deadline | 5 May 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 May 2023 - 31 May 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £100,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE UNITED KINGDOM SPORTS COUNCIL | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | East London | | Postcode | E14 3PU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI42 Tower Hamlets | | Local authority | Tower Hamlets | | Electoral ward | Island Gardens | | Westminster constituency | Poplar and Limehouse | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73220000 - Development consultancy services ## Release History - 6 Apr 2023 at 09:35 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2ebe4c52-872f-42ce-844f-c3adac58875e ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2ebe4c52-872f-42ce-844f-c3adac58875e 6th April 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.uksport.gov.uk/tenders ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
