## Summary

The Welsh Government, a national authority based in Cardiff, has completed the procurement process for the development and delivery of a training programme aimed at local authorities across Wales, focusing on Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller communities. The industry category is education and training services, specifically targeting the design and implementation of programmes for enhancing understanding and service provision for these communities. The procurement was conducted using the open procedure method and involved service contracts with a total value of £341,600 GBP. The award phase concluded on 10th June 2025, with TAYE Training and Consultancy Ltd being selected as the successful supplier to fulfill this essential mandate over the coming years.

This contract brings significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in educational services, community training, and program design, particularly those with expertise in cultural awareness and community engagement. Enterprises like TAYE Training and Consultancy Ltd that can demonstrate a solid understanding of the Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller communities are well-suited to compete in this market. The project encourages partnerships with community representatives, offering a unique chance to contribute to substantial community development and to influence public sector training at a national level. Moreover, this initiative supports the Welsh Government's commitment to fulfilling a key action under the ArWAP strategy, focusing on delivering meaningful change through tailored training and sustainable impact.

## Notice

Welsh Government aims to procure a single supplier to design and deliver a comprehensive and up to date Gypsy, Roma and Traveller training package to deliver to local authorities across Wales. This training package must be co-produced with the Gypsy, Roma and Traveller community throughout, including in the design stage. The successful bidder should consider all ways of life as adopted by Gypsies, Romas and Travellers as well as their housing needs when developing this training package. The training package will be delivered to local authorities over a three-year period following a rolling schedule that the successful bidder prepares and provides to Welsh Government by December 2025. Delivery of the training must also involve community members. This contract will help the client fulfil an action from the ArWAP to provide training to local authorities on Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities across Wales.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The ArWAP sets out a number of actions relating to the Gypsy, Roma and Traveller community to help ensure meaningful change is delivered. The 'Homes and places' chapter outlines a goal "to recognise that safe, culturally appropriate accommodation is necessary in order for individuals to flourish in other parts of their lives and to address the lack of site provision and poor quality of Gypsy and Traveller accommodation in Wales." Part of this goal is the action to: "Procure a framework for an external training company to develop and deliver a training course to upskill all 22 local authorities in Wales on Gypsy, Roma and Travellers nomadic ways of living". To fulfil this action, the Client is looking to procure an external organisation over a 4-year contract to: 1) Design and develop a national training package on Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities in Wales. 2) Deliver and evaluate a bespoke national training schedule to all 22 local authorities across Wales on a rolling basis.
