Since then the Council has partnered with an organisation called Bounts to provide the loyalty aspect of the requirement. The Council is now tendering for the provision of a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) automation platform & marketing solution that will need to integrate with the Bounts loyalty reward solution. Bidders who expressed interest in the original tender will also need to express their interest in this tender. I Will If You Will (IWIYW) is a project focussed upon changing women and girls' behaviours to take part in sport and physical activity.
