Description

SE1168 'Buddle Support Services' is a tender process by which Sport England will secure Contractors to deliver our Buddle service. This work is part of the delivery of Sport England strategy 'Uniting the Movement' by supporting clubs and community groups who provide opportunities for sport and physical activity. In particular, Sport England wishes to support these organisations to provide positive opportunities and embed inclusion, diversity and equitable practice.

Sport England is tendering the Services in three lots as follows:

Lot 1 Stakeholder engagement, content development and programme co-ordination - £936,675 excluding VAT, £1,124,010 including VAT;

Lot 2 Workshops - £570,000 excluding VAT, £684,000 including VAT;

Lot 3 Buddle Programme evaluation - £300,924 excluding VAT.

In addition, in respect of Lots 1 and 2, Sport England has identified an additional sum of £50,000 per annum per Lot which will be provisionally allocated to fund extra services as and if they are agreed between Sport England and the Lot supplier.

The full scope of the Services required are set out in detail in Section 7 of this ITT.

The purpose of the ITT is for Sport England to obtain more information from potential Buddle suppliers and to establish which tenders are the most economically advantageous tender based upon the award criteria set out in this ITT.
