Summary of the contracting process

Greater Manchester Combined Authority commissioned support for the transition from Changing Futures to the Live Well Enhanced Offer. The service is intended to strengthen collaboration between voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations and statutory services, with a particular focus on Oldham. Its scope includes strengthening the VCSE partnership in Oldham, developing methods to measure systems change, ensuring the VCSE sector has an equal role in strategic discussions, and evidencing the impact of systems-change objectives. Delivery is structured around partnership development, measurement and strategic engagement. This is a consultancy and related management support service, covering work across England. The buying organisation is Greater Manchester Combined Authority, based in Manchester.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold direct award without competition. One supplier, 10GM LTD, was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 1 May 2026 and runs from 1 May 2026 to 30 April 2027. Its value is £49,980 excluding VAT, or £59,976 including VAT. The contract is active. The award covers business and management consultancy and related services. The published outcome identifies 10GM LTD as the supplier. The procurement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, so no comparative scoring basis or tender evaluation criteria are reported.

This requirement is relevant to organisations experienced in VCSE partnership development, systems-change programmes and public-service collaboration. Credible suppliers would need to work effectively across voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations and statutory bodies, support equal participation in strategic decision-making, and turn complex partnership activity into evidence of impact. Experience of place-based work in Oldham or comparable communities would be useful, alongside the ability to develop practical methods for measuring systems change. The award to 10GM LTD, an SME and VCSE, indicates that a smaller mission-led organisation can deliver this type of consultancy. Competitors should be able to combine facilitation, strategic advice, partnership management and outcome measurement within one integrated service.
