## Summary

Ofcom, the UK Independent Communications Regulator, has awarded a contract titled "Delivery of media literacy activities for Rhondda Cynon Taf" to Cwmpas. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically training programme services (CPV code 80521000). The procurement process, carried out through an open procedure, has completed, and the contract was signed on 21 August 2024. Key dates include the tender period ending on 29 July 2024 with the contract having the possibility of extending up to two periods of 12 months each at Ofcom's discretion. The activities will be delivered in the region of Rhondda Cynon Taf (RCT), UK.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in media literacy or related fields to grow by participating in a significant project aimed at enhancing media literacy in the RCT community. Organisations with experience in similar projects and strong local networks will find this particularly beneficial. The contract encourages partnership applications and sub-contracting arrangements, making it suitable for various business scales, including SMEs like Cwmpas. The structured plan for Year 1, with the potential to extend for an additional two years, provides a stable and growth-conducive environment for the chosen service provider.

## Notice

Ofcom has duties to promote media literacy, delivery media literacy activities and encourage the delivery of media literacy activities. This ITT sets out our requirements to test a place-based approach to understand how effective this might be in improving people's media literacy. Over the past 6 months we have worked to understand what is already happening to support media literacy skills development in Rhondda Cynon Taf (RCT) and the need identified by local residents. Our intention is to commit to this work for a further three years. We have produced a Year 1 delivery plan (Appendix 5 - RCT plan) based on our work so far and tailored to the assets and needs of the community. Through this process we will commission an organisation who can deliver on this plan and produce further plans for Years 2 and 3, based on a delivery and learning cycle.
