This procurement process falls under the services category and is focused on research and development, particularly for consultancy services. The project is located in Swansea, Wales, and is governed by the Welsh devolved regulations. Key dates include the tender submission deadline on 24th July 2026, with the contract set to commence on 7th August 2026 and conclude on 31st March 2027. Currently in the tender stage, the procurement method is open competition, supporting electronic submissions through the eTenderWales portal. This tender provides an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in consultancy services, particularly those with expertise in research, analysis, and report preparation for public health and social services. Companies that align with the quality and price criteria specified in the award can greatly benefit from this opportunity, especially small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary community and social enterprises, given their designated suitability. Participating in this process could significantly enhance business growth, offering a platform to showcase proficiency in providing high-quality analytical services in a strategic and impactful sector. ## Notice Swansea Council is seeking to appoint a suitably experienced consultant to support the production of the West Glamorgan Population Needs Assessment 2027 on behalf of the West Glamorgan Regional Partnership Board. The assessment must meet statutory requirements under the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 and associated Code of Practice, and provide a clear, proportionate and usable evidence base to inform the next Area Plan, commissioning priorities and service transformation decisions across the region. The successful consultant will be responsible for reviewing, analysing and interpreting quantitative and qualitative evidence, identifying gaps in the available intelligence, undertaking additional research where required, and producing a high quality, publication ready Population Needs Assessment. Working under the direction of the Programme Director and Deputy Programme Director, the consultant will provide the specialist analytical, research and drafting expertise required to develop a robust evidence base and final assessment within the contract period. The contract will also include a discrete local needs assessment for violence against women, domestic abuse and sexual violence. This should complement the regional Population Needs Assessment chapter, but should be treated as a smaller, focused piece of work within the overall contract. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/065588-2026 | | Notice type | UK4 - Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Below threshold - open competition | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 13 Jul 2026 | | Submission deadline | 23 Jul 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 6 Aug 2026 - 31 Mar 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £24,000 | | Lots value | £24,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CITY & COUNTY OF SWANSEA | | Locality | SWANSEA | | Post town | Swansea | | Postcode | SA1 3SN | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL4 Mid and South West Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL43 Swansea | | Local authority | Swansea | | Electoral ward | Waterfront | | Westminster constituency | Swansea West | | Delivery location | TLL18 Swansea | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 13 Jul 2026 at 11:48 - TenderUpdate - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/065588-2026 - 10 Jul 2026 at 11:24 - Tender - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/065124-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/065588-2026 13th July 2026 - Tender notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/065124-2026 10th July 2026 - Tender notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - http://www.swansea.gov.uk/dobusiness - https://etenderwales.ukp.app.jaggaer.com/home.html - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
