Notice Title

Westminster Advice Service

Notice Description

Westminster City Council (the Council) currently provides independent advice and support to the residents of Westminster. The Council is commissioning generalist and tailored advice provision under a single contract, as it has in recent years. This single, overarching contract incorporates a number of service elements, at varying degrees of specialism, which are best delivered in a coordinated way rather than in isolation. On this basis the contract is not subdivided into discreet lots. However the contract could be provided by one organisation or a consortium of organisations to support the delivery of all elements of the specification. The Council intends to award the contract for an initial period of three (3) years. Additional information: Tender documents can be obtained from the following portal: www.capitalesourcing.com
