As part of this process Belfast City Council will host a pre-market engagement consultation on the 1st April 2022 to provide further detail to interested parties of the proposed procurement strategy and to gather information and feedback from the market which will be used to inform the finalisation of the Council’s procurement approach and structure. \nThe procurement(s) will help support the Enterprise and Business growth Unity to deliver the councils key strategic ambitions as set out in the Belfast Agenda 2015-2035.  The Belfast Agenda outlines our priorities for action and aims to support inclusive growth and improved services for residents and businesses. Growing the Economy is a key priority of the agenda, which acknowledges that a thriving and prosperous economy is the engine of change for our city and a critical contributor to other priorities that we wish to achieve.  \nIn 2017, Belfast City Council, in partnership with city stakeholders developed the Enterprise Framework for Belfast.  This framework sets out the ambition for the city to be a great place to start and grow a business. It also outlines the steps to be taken for Belfast to be “recognised for its diverse community of entrepreneurs, who benefit from a comprehensive, planned and coherent system of enterprise support, which fulfils their needs at all stages of the business growth life-cycle”.  Developed in partnership with citywide stakeholders, this framework recognises the need for a strong entrepreneurial culture and a vibrant and productive business base that is supported by an enterprise system that is dynamic, accessible and reflective.  The implementation of a new procurement approach for enterprise and business growth services will play a key role in enabling Belfast City Council to put in place a range of flexible support services to enable the growth and development of entrepreneurs and businesses based in Belfast. \nBelfast City Council therefore seeks to gather information from the market, which will help inform how the procurement(s) will be structured and managed. \nThe Council will be holding a consultation session on 1st April 2022 via MS Teams. Anyone interested in attending this session is required to register their interest by e-mailing Rachel Crothers at crothersr@belfastcity.gov.uk no later than COP 30th March 2022. A maximum of 2 individuals per organisation can register to attend, further detail will be issued to registered attendees in advance of the session."
