## Summary

The Welsh Government has concluded the procurement process for the Welsh Government Export Cluster Programme, designed to enhance the export performance of SMEs across Wales' five priority export sectors through managed clusters. This open procedure is part of an initiative under the Export Action Plan for Wales. The procurement, which occurred in Cardiff, UKL, was completed with awards announced as of 9 October 2025. The successful supplier, Kinetic Cubed Ltd, is set to manage several clusters beginning 23 October 2025, with the contract running through to October 2026, and potential renewals extending up to 2029. The procurement falls under the 'services' category, specifically business and management consultancy services, and aims to deliver community benefits in support of the authority’s economic and social goals.

This contract provides a significant opportunity for businesses involved in sectors such as renewables, consumer products, high-value manufacturing, Medtech, and technology to expand their operations within Wales and internationally. SMEs looking to enhance their export capabilities will find this programme aligns with their growth ambitions. The clustering approach is tailored to support these businesses by offering a collaborative platform that encourages knowledge exchange and resource sharing. This makes the tender particularly suitable for innovative SMEs and other consultancies specialised in management, export strategies, and sector-specific development. The structured programme is meant to fuel competitiveness and integrate Wales’ SMEs more effectively into global supply chains, thereby driving business growth and sustainability.

## Notice

The overarching objective of the Export Cluster Programme is to contribute to the wider aims of the Export Action Plan for Wales by bringing together, in clusters, like-minded businesses (predominantly SMEs) within Wales' five priority export sectors to support an increase in their individual and collective export performance. Welsh Government is looking to award this contract to the highest scoring bidder to manage, operate and deliver one, or more, of these export development clusters on a pan-Wales basis.
