These companies are not always organised in a way that enables them to carry out active monitoring, set aside time for the administrative aspects of responding to calls for tender (where the end result is not guaranteed), or develop professional networks in order to establish dialogue with contracting parties or form consortia. London 2012 and Rio 2016 demonstrated that involving very small, small and medium-sized businesses is possible if the organising committee sets a purchasing strategy that not only aims to help these companies win its contracts, but also establishes a methodology to support, train and adapt them for contracts for other major international sporting events. Paris 2024 decided early on to work on the issue, applying: • a political project led with French social partners; • involved and attentive governance; • tools to leave a legacy, even before 2024; • collaboration between all Paris 2024 departments; • regular actions on the ground. • des actions de terrain très régulières.
