The tender, titled "SE1113 - Research into Alternative/Parallel Sporting Structures," aims to identify successful approaches supporting under-represented groups. The contract period is from October 11, 2023, to February 12, 2024, with a maximum value of £75,000 GBP. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender deadline is August 4, 2023. The buying organisation, Sport England, is located in Loughborough, England, and falls under the services procurement category. This tender from Sport England presents an opportunity for businesses interested in research services focused on promoting inclusivity and tackling inequalities in sport and physical activity. The contract seeks to engage suppliers who can deliver actionable insights into successful approaches for supporting marginalized groups' participation in physical activities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in research consultancy services would be well-suited to compete for this opportunity. The research outcomes are expected to inform decision-making processes to address inequalities effectively and enhance inclusivity in sport and physical activity sectors. ## Notice In January 2021 Sport England launched its ten-year Uniting the Movement Strategy ("UtM" or "the Strategy"), a collaborative vision to transform lives and communities through sport and physical activity (SPA) by causing change in the SPA sector and ecosystem, so that Sport England can work with stakeholders to give people the opportunities they need now and in the future to tackle the inequalities seen in sport and physical activity As part of the 2022-25 Implementation Plan stage of the Strategy, Sport England seeks to change its offering to specifically target communities that have been traditionally left behind by collaborating with a more diverse set of partners to further identify, quantify, illuminate, and communicate the inequalities that exist in sport and physical activity and people's experiences, and has a requirement for research that identifies and illuminates what is successful and working well (i.e. bright spots) within alternative or parallel structures in supporting under-represented or marginalised groups to engage in sport and physical activity. Sport England is appointing the supplier to conduct research on the role different forms of provision play in making the sport and physical activity sector more inclusive and accessible for different audiences and communities. The Supplier will deliver a diverse mix of in-depth case studies that explores the work and success of organisations operating in support of those communities, as well as the attitudes, experiences, and perspectives of the individuals and communities who engage with and benefit from their services.
