## Summary

The procurement process for the "F4OR NE ENGLAND - BUSINESS EXCELLENCE" programme was initiated by the ORE Catapult, a public authority classified as sub-central government. The programme, aimed at enhancing business excellence in the offshore renewables sector, particularly in Northeast England, was active from May 2025. Important procurement details include the open competition method for services in the offshore industry category, valued at £80,000. The tender was originally set to close on 13 June 2025, with a contract period starting from 7 July 2025 to 6 July 2027, potentially extending by six months. However, the procurement was cancelled on 18 November 2025, with plans to reissue it as a framework.

This opportunity presents significant growth potential for businesses involved in offshore services, particularly those in the Northeast of England. The programme's focus on business excellence in the renewable energy sector provides a unique platform for SMEs to demonstrate their technical and commercial capabilities, as opportunities are scheduled to be reissued under a framework model. Businesses with expertise in offshore renewables and a capacity to engage with sub-central government initiatives would be well-suited to compete, encouraging further development in an increasingly essential industry.
