Sir Harold Hillier Gardens (SHHG) is a nationally significant arboretum located near Romsey, Hampshire, comprising approximately 180 acres and housing one of the most comprehensive collections of hardy trees and shrubs in the UK. The Gardens are operated as a registered charitable trust, with Hampshire County Council acting as trustee and retaining responsibility for strategic oversight and governance. Since 2021, SHHG has hosted an annual outdoor illuminated light trail with the aim of reaching a wider audience to support its charitable aims and sustained growth. The event has been successful over the past four years, with year-on-year growth in both visitor numbers and light trail ticket sales. The existing contract for delivery of the light trail expires on 15 January 2027. Given the success of the light trail, SHHG is seeking a provider to continue delivering an annual high-quality outdoor illuminated light trail for public sale that shall be ticketed for the duration of 6 weeks, between the end of November and the beginning of January. The appointed provider will be expected to design and deliver an exciting and immersive visitor experience that showcases the Gardens during evening hours, supports continued growth in visitor numbers towards a target of 90,000 visitors, and aligns with the Gardens’ charitable aims. The Council intends to enter into a concession contract for provision of the services for a total duration of 10 years. The service must be delivered in a manner that respects the sensitivities of a Grade II listed landscape and ensures a safe, accessible, and inclusive visitor experience. The provider will be responsible for all aspects of event delivery, including light trail design, lighting installation, e-ticketing, marketing, and event management. Management of the event will include provision of all required staffing and logistics necessary to deliver the trail, sourcing additional car parking if required, stewarding, security, and health and safety compliance. The provider will also be expected to provide catering facilities at the outset of the contract. A collaborative partnership approach will be required, with the successful provider working closely with SHHG to ensure the event aligns with the Gardens’ identity, charitable objectives and its position as part of Hampshire County Council. The Council will charge the provider a fee of £125,000.00 per annum (excluding VAT) for use of the Council’s premises for performance of the Services, payable in instalments. In addition, there will be an additional Concession Fee payable against all income generating ticket sales above 75,000 visitors, calculated on the basis of the per-ticket rate proposed by the provider in its tender submission.

Business Growth West Midlands (BGWM) is the current West Midlands business support service and the primary digital entry point into the wider region's business support ecosystem. Delivered by West Midlands Growth Company (WMGC), through West Midlands Growth Hub, BGWM forms a vital part of the region's commitment to providing a "no wrong door" approach to business support. As part of the new WMGC Growth Hub operating model, a new digital service is required to provide a seamless entry journey for all businesses while supporting clear routing, referral management, business intelligence capture and outcome tracking across the wider business support ecosystem. This may or may not be under the same brand. Following a strategic review, WMGC has adopted a Hybrid Universal Front Door model for the business support digital service, which provides a consistent and high-quality entry experience for all businesses and quickly routes businesses to the most appropriate support while managing expectations around provision through clear positioning and tailored customer journeys. While the future digital service will provide a universal entry point, universal access does not mean that every business will receive person-led support. The primary role of the service is to identify and enable the most appropriate next step for the business. Small, micro, pre-start and startup businesses will be supported through automated referrals to Local Enterprise Services, other local and national provision, plus curated digital content and tools. High-growth potential and strategic businesses will be identified through proportionate digital triage and transferred rapidly into person-led support through the High Growth Service and Strategic Account Management functions. The future digital service is intended not only to signpost businesses that are not yet eligible for person-led High Growth support to external provision, but also to operate as a regional digital support layer. It will help address common business needs directly through high-quality digital tools, guidance and tailored recommendations. These tailored resources would supplement evidenced gaps in provision and improve continuity rather than replicate support already available through local, regional, national or private-sector providers. The future digital service should be informed by recognised best practice from comparable business support ecosystems and digital service models. Discovery activity should assess existing market solutions and ensure any future service delivers clear additional value to businesses and stakeholders, avoiding unnecessary duplication of functionality, content, tools or services already available elsewhere. To ensure future investment decisions are evidence-based and aligned to business needs, WMGC is seeking to appoint an experienced agency or consortium to undertake a comprehensive Discovery Phase that will validate user needs, test key assumptions underpinning the hybrid model, define service requirements, and develop a robust specification for future procurement and implementation. This is an initial procurement associated with the first phase - Discovery - of this project.
