Summary of the contracting process

The Westminster Advice Service, aimed at providing independent advice and support to residents of Westminster, was orchestrated by capitalEsourcing, linked with Westminster City Council in London, England. This open procurement process concluded on 31st July 2018, with the contract having a value of £4,950,000 and a duration from 16th September 2018 to 15th September 2021. The procurement method employed was an open procedure above threshold, categorised under guidance and counselling services, which lends itself to robust competition.

This tender presents lucrative opportunities for service providers, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), in the counselling and guidance sector. Businesses specialising in advisory services, especially those with a track record in community support, would find themselves well-positioned to compete in future tenders of a similar nature, benefiting from the potential growth and expansion resulting from such collaborations with local authorities.
