## Summary

WM5G Limited is seeking consultancy services to support market engagement activities related to the Citizen Wellbeing 5G Testbed, a part of the Urban Connected Communities Project in the West Midlands. The procurement is currently at the Award stage, with a contract value of £65,000. The tender period concluded on 22 August 2019, and the contract is set to start on 16 September 2019, lasting until 1 November 2019. This process was initiated as a limited procurement method through a competitive quotation below the threshold, categorised under Business analysis consultancy services.

This tender presents significant opportunities for SMEs within the consultancy sector, particularly those specialising in markets related to 5G technology and healthcare applications. Businesses equipped to deliver strategic data analysis, use case development, or those with experience in facilitating market engagement processes will be especially well-suited to compete. Collaborations with other work packages focused on data analysis can further enhance prospects, allowing for integrated service offerings that align with WM5G's objectives.

## Notice

*Please Note - this procurement now closes at MIDDAY on 22 August 2019* WM5G Limited wishes to support market engagement activities relating to the Market Engagement Process within the Citizen Wellbeing testbed. This will involve working with WM5G and staff at University Hospitals Birmingham (UHB) and their partners to deliver a work package focused around running a Market Engagement Process. This third work package should interact with the first and second work packages comprising Strategic Data Analysis and Use Case Development as we expect there to be synergies across them. WM5G is creating a new marketplace for the delivery of 5G related products and services. A Market Engagement Process is required to stimulate the supply-side. This will be delivered by facilitating market activities to publicise the ambitions of the Citizen Wellbeing testbed and its use of 5G, leading to an understanding of the market's current and future position to respond to the requirements detailed in this document. The successful bidder to this procurement (Market Engagement) will need to work with the teams delivering two other work packages that are being procured separately and can also be found on Contracts Finder. Please Note - Closing date for clarification questions is midday on Wednesday 14th August. Responses to all clarification questions will be published on this site by midday Friday 16th August 2019. Information regarding how to bid is available in the attached PDF.
