The purpose of this exercise is to engage with potential suppliers and gather information on available solutions, functionality, delivery and implementation approaches, integration capabilities and indicative commercial models. Development Bank of Wales is particularly interested in understanding the capabilities of solutions across third-party risk management and monitoring, including how platforms differentiate themselves from solutions focused primarily on cyber-risk monitoring. Suppliers are invited to provide information regarding their proposed solution and to indicate whether relevant functionality is available as standard, through configuration, integration or customisation, or is included within the supplier's product roadmap. Suppliers should also identify any relevant dependencies, limitations, additional modules, third-party data sources and associated costs. This Preliminary Market Engagement exercise is being undertaken to inform Development Bank of Wales' understanding of the market and its consideration of potential future requirements and procurement options. Participation in this exercise does not constitute a formal tender process and does not guarantee that a subsequent procurement exercise will be undertaken. Any future procurement opportunity will be advertised separately in accordance with the applicable procurement requirements. Suppliers wishing to participate should access the Preliminary Market Engagement exercise through the eTenderWales eTendering Portal and submit their response in accordance with the instructions provided.

This market evaluation is intended to: • Understand current market capabilities and solution approaches. • Assess platform maturity, functionality and delivery models. • Identify which capabilities are included as standard and which require additional modules or services. • Inform budget planning and the development of a future procurement specification. Target outcomes • Improved visibility of third-party risk. • A proportionate, risk-based approach to supplier oversight. • Reduced duplication of assurance activity across DBW functions. • Centralised, auditable reporting and evidence. • Better collaboration between Security, Risk, Co... > [Read full procurement scope and specification on Tenderline](https://tenderline.uk/tenders/preliminary-market-engagement-third-party-risk-management-tprm-platform-ocds-h6vhtk-0793af) ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** planning - **CPV codes:** 48000000, 48170000, 72000000 - **Delivery regions:** UK - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB - **Contract Period:** 31/03/2027 to 31/03/2028 - **Renewal published:** yes ## Provenance and Official Sources - **Official Notice:** [Find a Tender notice](/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.find-tender.service.gov.uk%2FNotice%2F102703-2026) - **Last Source Update:** 2026-10-29T14:37:17.000Z - **This document generated:** 2026-10-29T22:00:04.315Z - **Machine API:** https://tenderline.uk/api/public/tenders/ocds-h6vhtk-0793af
