Description

Since its inception in 2019, OWGP has developed a suite of Grant Funding and Business Transformation Programmes aimed at supporting companies of all sizes and primary sectors to enter into or grow their existing presence in the Offshore Wind supply chain. OWGP's KPI's are aligned to increasing the number of jobs, turnover, exports and new marketable products or services (IP) to the Offshore Wind Sector.
In 2023, OWGP undertook a review of its programmes and established a number of areas which could be strengthened / added to which would improve the value to the Offshore Wind Supply Chain. These included;
• Access to support aligned to the subject of intellectual property management and
protection.
• Access to support aligned to contractual and commercial awareness when operating in
the Offshore Wind Industry.
OWGP therefore wish to explore the market in relation to these two areas to identify potential consultant to support service offerings to strengthen the growing Offshore Wind supply chain in these areas.
