## Summary

The Cheshire Fire Authority has awarded a contract for "Funding Alert Bid Writer" services, which falls under the business and management consultancy services category. The procurement process was completed through a limited method below the threshold, targeting sub-central government public authorities. The opportunity was announced with the procurement intent initiated on 18 May 2026 and the contract being signed on the same day to GRANT FUNDING SKILLS LIMITED. This contract is set to run until 17 May 2027, with potential renewals for two additional periods of 12 months each, with a total value of £48,600. The service delivery covers multiple regions across the United Kingdom, including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK.

This contract presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for businesses specialising in consultancy services, specifically bid writing and support services. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in managing public sector funding projects could find this an optimal opportunity to expand their portfolios, given the scope and geographic coverage of the contract. As the service is required by a sub-central government body, organisations experienced in navigating public sector frameworks and providing strategic funding advice would be well-placed to compete effectively in similar future tenders.
