Early market engagement allows us to get a better understanding from the market on what is possible and what would be needed in order to fulfil a contract between us.

Additional information: The project objectives A training solution is required for the Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS) Regulatory Information and Intelligence Team. The team performs a regulatory intelligence and information reporting function for OPSS. The team has gone through a 12-month period of intense recruitment which adds to the existing established intelligence staff already present on the team. The team is made up from a variety of backgrounds varying from established Intelligence backgrounds to no Intelligence experience whatsoever. The topic of Intelligence training can be a niche requirement and OPSS as a national product regulator is seeking heavily contextualised intelligence training that is a step removed from traditional law enforcement or Police focussed intelligence training. A training provider would need to work extensively with the Intelligence team to help understand the nature of their day-to-day activity to help contextualise any content and scenarios/group work to suit a regulatory Intelligence environment. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/41451b99-5341-4808-8e46-e3f458d8b522 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 14 Jun 2024 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 21 Jun 2024 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | DEPARTMENT FOR INTERNATIONAL TRADE | | Locality | CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF10 1EP | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL52 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | | Local authority | Cardiff | | Electoral ward | Cathays | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff South and Penarth | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80000000 - Education and training services ## Release History - 14 Jun 2024 at 11:06 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/41451b99-5341-4808-8e46-e3f458d8b522 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/41451b99-5341-4808-8e46-e3f458d8b522 14th June 2024 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d2aa5ee4-a37b-46cd-accf-e6e4697797d6 Market Engagement Questionnaire ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
