Description

East Midlands Business Limited (EMB) wishes to commission a single or multiple contractors to deliver internationalisation strategies at the spatial level of the Derby, Derbyshire, Nottingham and Nottinghamshire (D2N2), Greater Lincolnshire and Leicester and Leicestershire Local Enterprise Partnership areas.

EMB is a Delivery Partner for the Department for International Trade (DIT), covering the East Midlands region. For this procurement we are acting on behalf of DIT and working in partnership with D2N2, Greater Lincolnshire and Leicester and Leicestershire LEPs.

During 2020/21, DIT is piloting International Trade Adviser roles at LEP level. This is designed to support the Government's Levelling Up agenda and make international trade advice and support more available to SMEs by creating better wiring with LEP strategies and local Growth Hub activity.

In support of this work, LEP-level Internationalisation Strategies will ensure that a common understanding exists between DIT and the LEPs, aligning policy and ensuring shared objectives that are complementary.

This commission focuses on three Local Enterprise Partnership areas:

• Derby, Derbyshire, Nottingham and Nottinghamshire (D2N2) LEP
• Greater Lincolnshire LEP
• Leicester and Leicestershire LEP

This procurement will identify a single or multiple consultants to deliver individual internationalisation strategies for East Midlands based LEPs. These are intended to provide local 'road maps' which help policy makers determine the best focus and nature of international trade support in their areas. This work will be tendered as three geographic Lots to encourage bids from locally knowledgeable organisations.

Details of how to apply are set out in the attached Invitation to Quote document.
