## Summary

Llywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government has awarded the contract for a research project titled "Gypsy Roma Traveller: Transit Provision Research and Recommendations" in the social research services category. The procurement process, which commenced with tendering, has progressed to the award stage. The contract has been awarded to Gypsies and Travellers Wales Limited, based in Cardiff. The tender sought expertise in engaging the Gypsy and Traveller community throughout the project to inform recommendations for appropriate transit site provisions across Wales. The contract, valued at GBP 65,000 excluding VAT, was signed on 14th March 2025 and is set to start in April 2025, lasting six months with a possibility of a three-month extension.

This research project presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in social research, community engagement, and collaborative consortia. Companies with experience in working with marginalised communities, particularly Gypsy and Traveller groups, and those specialising in transit provision research, stand to benefit greatly. The Welsh Government requires evidence-based recommendations, meaning that businesses capable of conducting thorough and inclusive research will be essential. Furthermore, businesses specialising in negotiated stopping place solutions might find added value in contributing to the tender. Collaborative bids are encouraged, offering a chance for smaller enterprises to join forces and leverage their unique strengths to deliver impactful outcomes.
