Thames Freeport is seeking to appoint a Strategic Innovation Delivery Partner (SIDP) to support the delivery of its long-term innovation strategy through a Competitive Flexible Procedure. The successful organisation or consortia will provide both strategic leadership and operational delivery across a portfolio of complex innovation programmes, working with a diverse stakeholder base including public sector bodies, NHS organisations, local authorities, academia, and private sector partners. The initial priority for the SIDP will be the delivery of a £3.3 million AI Centre within a regional hospital. This programme will create a national demonstrator for applied artificial intelligence in frontline health and care, requiring the SIDP to lead programme mobilisation, NHS engagement, technical deployment of AI use cases, workforce development, and creation of a sustainable operating model. Proven delivery experience within regulated or clinical environments will be a key assessment criterion. Following successful mobilisation of the AI Centre, the SIDP will hold a call-off contract with an estimated value of up to £15 million over three years. Additional commissions may include delivery of innovation programmes across Thames Freeport’s core sectors: sustainable construction, advanced manufacturing, public services, and digital logistics, contributing to the Freeport’s ambition to become an internationally recognised centre for applied AI and smart infrastructure. Bidders must demonstrate clear leadership, operational capacity, sector expertise, investment-readiness, and the ability to operate effectively across complex public-private ecosystems. Consortium bids are permitted but must be fully formed at the point of submission, with a designated lead organisation.
