Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process detailed here involves the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), operating from Leeds, UK, for a contract titled "Transformation Office," classified under "General management consultancy services" (CPV code 79411000). The procurement was conducted using a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, valued at approximately £9,994,440.20, has progressed to the award stage, with an active status being confirmed on 23rd June 2026 after its award earlier in June. The contract period spans from 2nd June 2026 to 1st December 2027.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for large-scale consultancy firms, particularly those with expertise in general management guidance. As this procurement does not favor SMEs or VCSEs, larger businesses like Baringa Partners LLP, which has been awarded the contract, are well-suited to engage in such opportunities. Businesses offering comprehensive consultancy services can leverage such government contracts to enhance their portfolios and secure significant revenue streams over the multi-year contract period. The involvement in this project emphasises the potential for business expansion by working alongside key governmental departments in transformative initiatives.
