Description

Between May 2021 and August 2022, the Design for Growth service provided design management coaching to many innovative SMEs from across the UK.

Following the expiry of that contract, this procurement exercise will establish a new supplier contract with the successful bidder to further develop and deliver the Design for Growth service. The contract requires the provision of design management coaching to a minimum of 150 business clients during the contract period to 31st March 2025. Coaching activity must be distributed across the contract period, with a minimum of 30 businesses beginning their coaching during each 6 month period.
