The procurement process is at the award stage, with Genecon Ltd being awarded the contract. The main procurement category is services, and key dates include the completion of phase 1 in August 2022 and the signing of the contract on February 9, 2023. This tender opportunity offers business growth prospects for consultancy firms specializing in business analysis, research and development, and general management consultancy services. The Strategic Outline Case requires expertise in strategic and economic cases, making it suitable for businesses experienced in these areas.

The location of the project is in Mid Wales, focusing on various industry sectors such as Applied Research and Development, Agriculture, Tourism, Digitalisation, and more. ## Notice Powys County Council wishes to procure the drafting of a Strategic Outline Case (SOC) in a form that will best meet the needs of all partners and optimise opportunities for the Project.The Mid Wales Growth Deal has identified 8 key themes relating to Applied Research and Development, Agriculture/Bioscience, Strengthening of Tourism, Energy, Digitalisation, Support of Enterprise, Transport, Skills, and Employment.One of the recommended interventions emerging from the recent SQW Applied Research and Innovation Report was the development of an Innovation/Advanced Manufacturing Campus for Mid Wales, with the aim of improving the supply of skills into industry and provide a hub for collaboration/R&I activity.Following the strategic review by SQW, the Mid Wales Growth Deal agreed that an Advanced Manufacturing Centre should be a priority managed via Inter County Agreements, Private Sector Advisory Group, and the Growing Mid Wales Advisory Group. To this end, the industry sector and Industry Wales were invited to work with the said stakeholders to build the project scoping proposal prior to full Business Case Assessment and bidding process.Phase 1 of the project was completed by Industry Wales in August 2022 and the Scoping document was presented to the Mid Wales Growth Deal Board for further discussion.Agreement was made to allow the project to progress to the first stage of the Mid Wales Growth Deal process (the Strategic Outline Case) and then further development for the Outline Business Case, should this be agreed.The next stage in the development of the MWAMC (Mid Wales Advanced Manufacturing Campus) is to develop the Strategic Outline Case for the Mid Wales Growth Deal Office. The Strategic Outline Case must provide the required detail for the Strategic and Economic Cases. However, the Commercial, Financial and Management Cases will require consideration to ensure these can be further developed at the next stage. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Sell2Wales | | Latest notice | https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=128048 | | Notice type | S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Feb 2023 | | Submission deadline | 25 Jan 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 9 Feb 2023 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | POWYS COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | LLANDRINDOD WELLS | | Post town | Llandrindod Wells | | Postcode | LD1 5LG | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL4 Mid and South West Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL41 Mid Wales | | Local authority | Powys | | Electoral ward | Llandrindod South | | Westminster constituency | Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | GENECON | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 72221000 - Business analysis consultancy services - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 73200000 - Research and development consultancy services - 73210000 - Research consultancy services - 73220000 - Development consultancy services - 79400000 - Business and management consultancy and related services - 79410000 - Business and management consultancy services - 79411000 - General management consultancy services - 79411100 - Business development consultancy services ## Release History - 10 Feb 2023 at 08:36 - Award - S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=128048 - 10 Feb 2023 at 08:36 - Award - S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=128048 - 11 Jan 2023 at 13:46 - Tender - S2W Notice - Website Invitation to Tender Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=128048 ## Documents - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=JAN423815&idx=1 11th January 2023 - Request for Tender - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=JAN423815&idx=2 11th January 2023 - Standard Services Contract ## Notice URLs - https://www.powys.gov.uk - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/sitehelp/help_guides.aspx ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
