Summary of the contracting process

Nottinghamshire County Council procured business and management consultancy services to redesign its corporate performance framework. The requirement was a call-off under the ESPO Framework Agreement 664_25, focused on reviewing and reshaping how the council manages and measures corporate performance. The buying organisation is Nottinghamshire County Council, with delivery across Nottinghamshire in the East Midlands. This is a public-sector performance, organisational improvement and management consultancy requirement rather than a supply, construction or operational services contract. It would be relevant to consultancies with experience in public-sector performance frameworks, organisational strategy, management information, performance measurement and the practical implementation of redesigned governance or reporting arrangements within a local authority setting.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a call-off under the ESPO Framework Agreement 664_25. The contract was awarded to IMPOWER CONSULTING LIMITED on 24 August 2026 for £98,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The award contract period runs from 31 August 2026 to 31 October 2026. The wider contract period is recorded as 1 September 2026 to 31 October 2026, and the tender submission deadline was 8 August 2026 at 23:59. The procurement was for services, with an estimated value of £98,000. The published method detail describes the route as “Other”, with the specific call-off framework route forming the main procedural detail. The award is active.

Although this contract has already been awarded, it provides a clear reference point for suppliers tracking Nottinghamshire County Council’s future demand for corporate performance and organisational improvement work. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate strong consultancy capability in reviewing existing performance frameworks, redesigning measures and reporting arrangements, and translating recommendations into a workable local-authority operating model. Experience of working with elected-member, senior-officer and service-level performance requirements would be commercially relevant, as would the ability to handle structured analysis, stakeholder engagement and concise management reporting. Suppliers should also understand how to work through a public-sector framework call-off and evidence delivery of focused transformation assignments. The buyer’s stated suitability assessment indicates that this requirement was not aimed at SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.
