Procurement
Procurement opportunities for the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow in 2014 will fall into three broad categories and timescales.
Specialist Support Services: 2008 onwards
In order to develop the detail of the delivery plan for the Games Glasgow 2014 Ltd may need to procure specialist support services. Details of any opportunities will be advertised on this website and, where required under European procurement law, in the Official Journal Of The European Union (OJEU). It is likely that these support services would be procured and delivered on a consultancy basis.
Infrastructure and Capital Investment; 2009 onwards
From 2009 onwards G2014 Ltd and its partner, Glasgow City Council supported by Culture and Sport Glasgow, will procure and deliver new venues, upgrades to existing venues and other related infrastructure required for the Games, including the Games Village. Procurement will happen incrementally in line with a programme of venues and facilities’ development, and finalisation of the detailed requirements to deliver the Games, although the bulk of the procurement is likely to take place between 2009 and 2012.
Background information on each of the Games Venues can be found at:

The attached document gives an indicative outline of Games-related infrastructure procurement, including the likely scope of the works and the indicative costs and timescales.
G2014 Indicative Procurement Fact Sheet
A Competitive Dialogue process to select a preferred development partner for the Athletes’ Village for the Games is currently underway, with the anticipation that the successful bidder will be confirmed in summer 2009.
Details on the Athletes’ Village can be found at:
www.glasgow2014.com/Village_venues/The-Athletes-Village/
The tender process to select the main contractor to deliver the new National Indoor Sports Area (NISA) and Velodrome – a key venue for the Games in 2014 for Track Cycling and Badminton – is currently underway.
Services and Temporary Games Overlay; 2012 – 2014
In the years immediately prior to the Games the focus of procurement will change more to the provision of services and the necessary temporary Games infrastructure to ensure the successful delivery of the Games.
More information on this will be provided in due course, but all open tender opportunities will be advertised on the Glasgow 2014 Ltd website and, where required under European procurement law, in the Official Journal Of The European Union (OJEU).
