This project falls under the services category, specifically focusing on feasibility studies and sports-event organisation services. The contract was awarded to ORIGIN Sports Group Ltd, with the contract period commencing on 3rd January 2017 and concluding on 31st May 2017. The procurement was conducted via an open procedure, and the tender was officially published on 16th May 2018, following its culmination on 5th December 2016. This procurement process presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in event management and consultancy, particularly those with experience in large-scale sporting events. Companies with expertise in feasibility studies, bid preparation, and strategic planning could find a lucrative avenue for growth, given the specialised requirements outlined by Birmingham City Council. Potential bidders are encouraged to engage with local authorities and demonstrate their capability in delivering compelling proposals that align with the Council's objectives for the Commonwealth Games. ## Notice Birmingham City Council (BCC) has announced its intention to bid to host the 2026 Commonwealth Games (CWG). To inform the bidding process and meet Commonwealth Games England's (CWE) bidding requirements an objective evaluation of options and solution proposal is required to be prepared. The Council is therefore looking to appoint a Provider to: 1. Undertake a feasibility study (which meets CWE's requirements) into the hosting of the 2026 CWG in Birmingham. 2. Develop any further information and a compelling narrative which will enable Birmingham to exceed Commonwealth Games England's requirements and will contribute to the City's success. 3. Prepare the bid documentation, including a 'bid book'. The successful provider will have an extensive and proven track record of working with cities and Local Authorities on 'mega' events, including experience of compiling and delivering bid feasibilities and delivery strategies, developing narrative, and identifying unique selling points.
