## Summary

The Department for Business and Trade procured business analysis consultancy services to develop options and recommendations for structuring and managing UK Government resources and activity related to the World Trade Organisation. The work concerns the resourcing and governance of government WTO activity, combining organisational analysis, resource planning and recommendations for management arrangements. It is a services requirement delivered in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is a central government department based in London. The procurement was awarded to CMC Partnership Consultancy Ltd, a consultancy based in Newport, although the published delivery location covers the United Kingdom. This is relevant to consultancies experienced in advising government or other complex organisations on operating models, governance and international trade-related activity.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a direct award below the relevant threshold without competition. CMC Partnership Consultancy Ltd was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 19 August 2026 and runs from 19 August 2026 to 25 September 2026. Its value is £17,250 excluding VAT, or £20,700 including VAT. The contract is active. The requirement was assessed as business analysis consultancy services, with the work focused on options and recommendations for the structure and management of UK Government WTO resources and activity. The published outcome identifies CMC Partnership Consultancy Ltd as the appointed supplier for the United Kingdom-wide requirement.

This outcome indicates demand for a specialist consultancy able to analyse how government resources and activity should be organised around WTO responsibilities, then turn that analysis into practical options and recommendations. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need strong business analysis capability, including operating-model design, governance review, organisational structuring and resource planning. Experience of central government environments would be particularly relevant, as would the ability to understand international trade policy and the institutional demands of WTO work. Suppliers should be able to work with senior stakeholders, assess alternative management arrangements, produce clear evidence-based recommendations and deliver concise, decision-ready consultancy outputs within a tightly defined assignment.
