This project falls under the services category, specifically market research services, as per CPV classification 79310000. The procurement method involved a mini competition within the CCS Research & Insights DPS - RM6126. The process aimed to assess the economic, social, and environmental impact of the historic environment sector in Wales. The award stage was recently completed, with the contract signed on 5th November 2025. The buying entity, working from their Corporate Procurement Services at Cathays Park, sought a thorough valuation of the sector to better inform investment and policy directions, thus highlighting the potential cultural and socio-economic benefits of heritage assets in Wales. This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in market research services, especially those with a focus on impact analysis and economic valuation. It presents a lucrative venture for enterprises capable of developing robust methodologies to analyse and quantify the sector’s contributions. Amion Consulting Limited, based in Liverpool, was successful in securing the contract, which showcases the rewarding possibilities for firms adept in handling comprehensive studies that aid in strategic decision-making. This project is an ideal match for businesses aiming to expand their portfolio in heritage and environment-related consultancy and development services, thereby contributing to further growth and exploration within this industry in Wales. ## Notice Mini Competition from the CCS Research & Insights DPS - RM6126The historic environment (HE) sector is a key part of the Welsh economy and understanding the contribution of the sector is essential for advocating for the sector's role as both an economic and social driver. Evidence that the historic environment is fundamental to prosperity in Wales helps inform strategic investment and policy design and ensures that the socio-economic and cultural benefits of heritage assets are maximized for current and future generations. Robust analysis of the contribution of sector ensures adequate resource allocation and the potential for exploitation of sector development.Cadw is wishing to commission new research to value and establish the impact of the historic environment sector in Wales, on behalf of the Historic Environment Group (HEG), a national forum, that consists of public sector bodies, representatives of voluntary sector organisations and owners of historic sites. The intervening years have included significant events that have had substantial impacts within the sector and so the timing is right to demonstrate the attributed value that the sector brings economically, socially and environmentally to the people of Wales.Valuing the historic environment is essential to make the case for heritage and developing a stronger appreciation of the size and scope of impacts which accrue as a result of the historic environment and the work of organisations operating within the sector.The aspiration for this project is a full economic impact and valuation of the sector, and proposed methodologies should be designed with this in mind. However, we are realistic in recognising that this may not be feasible if the data obtained is not complete and therefore the successful bidder will need to develop an appropriate and robust methodology with options that focus on value. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Sell2Wales | | Latest notice | https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=157805 | | Notice type | S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 6 Nov 2025 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 5 Nov 2025 | | 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 | LLYWODRAETH CYMRU / WELSH GOVERNMENT | | Locality | CAERDYDD / CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF10 3NQ | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL52 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | | Local authority | Cardiff | | Electoral ward | Cathays | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff South and Penarth | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | AMION CONSULTING | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79310000 - Market research services ## Release History - 6 Nov 2025 at 10:54 - Award - S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=157805 ## Notice URLs - http://gov.wales ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
