## Summary

Swansea University is currently engaged in a public procurement process for the "Tender for S4 Project Printing". This procurement falls under the industry category of printing and related services and is located at Swansea University, Singleton Park, Swansea, SA2 8PP. The process is currently at the Award stage, with the contract being signed on 5th August 2021, reflecting the necessity for increased printing services due to the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The original tender period concluded on 14th June 2021, with the award notification expected by 28th June 2021.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in printing services, particularly those offering digital printing and distribution solutions. Companies that are capable of delivering high-quality, scalable printing options and have experience with educational outreach or similar projects would be well-positioned to compete. Given that the project is part of a broader initiative funded by the Welsh European Funding Office, there may also be prospects for collaborative bids or partnerships to enhance service delivery and innovation within the STEM educational outreach landscape.

## Notice

Swansea University Science for Schools Scheme (S4) is part of the TrioSci Cymru consortium and is based within Swansea University's Faculty of Science and Engineering. S4 provides science outreach via workshops to KS3 pupils in South Wales. The workshops are interactive, research led and designed to spark curiosity and a greater diversity and inclusivity in (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). S4 aims to stimulate the uptake of science education pathways, by getting young people excited and engaged in Science through these free, hands-on STEM workshops held at the University Singleton campus.However, since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic in March 2020, the project has incurred a significant increase in printing costs due to the requirement of bumper science workbooks for participants, where the content had become substantially larger than the originally designed workshop workbooks.This unforeseen and unplanned for provision pushed the project's aggregated printing spend over the University's GBP25K tender threshold, requiring the project team to now formally tender their remaining Year 3 printing requirements.
