What are The Tall Ships Races?
• The Tall Ships Races are an internationally acclaimed annual
  competition organised by Sail Training International (STI) and held every
  summer in European waters.

• Each year 70 – 100 vessels from across the world, crewed by some
  5,000 – 6,000 young people, take part in this unique event that
  combines 4 days of festival activity in each port with racing between
  ports.

• The main aim of The Tall Ships Races is to provide an opportunity for
  young people to develop their personal skills in a challenging and
  memorable sail-training environment and hence at least 50% of a Tall
  Ship’s crew must be aged 15-25 years.

Procurement Routes to Market
There will be four routes to market which include:
•   Tender (procurements over £164,176)

•   Quotation (procurements under £164,176)

•   Use of an existing framework – which may consist of a single or several
    suppliers which could be called off via a mini competition, ranked or
    direct award to a single supplier

•   Concession contract
Evaluation of Procurements

Each procurement will detail its own marking/evaluation
criteria based on the products and services that the
Council needs. There will also be instructions informing
you on how to purchase a sponsorship package.
Sponsorship Packages
In every procurement you will be asked if you would like to purchase a
sponsorship package.

Our sponsorship packages relate to each of the 3 signature events with one large
sponsorship package covering all events.
They range in value and include benefits such as:-

• Supporting deserving young people in Sunderland to have a life-changing sail-
  training opportunity
• Supporting the volunteer workforce to give a fantastic Sunderland welcome to
  over 3m visitors.
• Significant brand exposure via signage, branding and marketing opportunities
• Space on event sites to meet existing and potential customers
• Extensive social media exposure
• VIP invitations to special events
Sponsorship Packages
To ensure fairness to all suppliers you will be evaluated on the
actual cost and quality of the service/goods as specified in each
procurement.

If you are successful and are awarded a contract and have
indicated in your bid that you would like a sponsorship
package you will be able to offset that cost against your bid
thus invoicing the Council for your bid price less the cost of
your chosen package.
