SA1 Swansea Waterfront

Are you ready to capitalise on the opportunities presented by the Tidal Lagoon projects?

As it’s looking likely that Swansea will be home to the world's first, man-made, energy-generating tidal lagoon, we’re taking a keen interest in the opportunities such a large-scale project would present to our local economy. 

Mark Shorrock, the visionary behind tidal lagoons, has made his ambitions clear: the lagoons should be sustainable, both environmentally and socially, with ambitions to source as much as 50% of services locally. Mark seems like a decent bloke, and we doff our caps. 

The magic word here is ‘supply-chain’. Even though the bigger jobs have been allocated, there are unquantifiable opportunities for servicing those suppliers. Snapping up a contract, however, won’t simply depend on whether or not a company is technically able to deliver; it will depend on the impression that company makes during the procurement process. Does its presentation convey its competence and professionalism? 

One thing is certain: if the tidal lagoons go ahead, procurement will be rigorous and competition fierce. The successful few will be those whose image – their marketing, communications and pitches – look and sound as professional as their actual offering. A perfect product or service alone might not cut it.

To be contenders, worthy adversaries to the obvious ‘safe’ large multi-nationals, local businesses must act quickly to get their corporate communications perfectly on point and looking as good as they really are.
