## Summary

The Rhondda Cynon Taf CBC, a public authority in the United Kingdom operating under Welsh devolved regulations, has awarded the "RCT Microenterprise Project" contract. This project, falling under the industry category of other community, social and personal services, aims to support individuals in Rhondda Cynon Taf who aspire to establish microenterprises for care services. This procurement, conducted using the direct method below threshold without competition, was initiated in the tender stage and is now complete. The contract was signed on 6th March 2026, and it commenced on 1st April 2026, running until 31st March 2030. This opportunity was awarded to Community Catalysts, an SME known for its commitment to voluntary, community, and social enterprise sectors.

This contract presents significant business growth opportunities for companies active in community care and social services, particularly those familiar with light-touch regime procurement processes. As the project focusses on guiding local people through standards and legal requirements of starting a microenterprise, businesses offering consultancy, training, or legal services in the care sector would find this relevant. SMEs and VCSEs with expertise in delivering personal services or fostering community development are well-suited to engage in similar contracts, supporting efforts to create sustainable microenterprises in the care industry within Rhondda Cynon Taf.
