UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Westminster City Council commissioned business and management consultancy services to support its Fit For Future programme. The work focused on facilitating and guiding organisation design workshops for the Alignment of Functions and Business Support teams, as part of the programme’s strengthening workstream. This is advisory and workshop-led organisational design work rather than construction, technology supply or routine administration. Delivery was for Westminster City Council in London. The requirement suits consultancies with the ability to structure and facilitate senior organisational design discussions, understand how functions and business support activities align, and turn workshop outputs into practical organisational recommendations. The selected supplier was Gartner UK Ltd, a large UK-based consultancy.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Westminster City Council used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. Gartner UK Ltd received the award for the single lot. The contract was signed on 14 September 2026 and runs from 14 September 2026 to 9 October 2026. Its value is £51,131 excluding VAT, or £61,357.20 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The stated requirement was evaluated through the council’s direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, so there is no published comparison of competing bids or weighted evaluation criteria. The arrangement covers a short, focused consultancy engagement for the organisation design workshop activity.

For a supplier that did not win this requirement, the opportunity indicates demand for specialist organisational design consultancy supporting council transformation programmes. A credible competitor would need demonstrable capability in facilitating organisation design workshops, guiding stakeholders through alignment of functions, and addressing the structure and operation of business support teams. Experience of working with public authorities and of contributing to strengthening or improvement workstreams would be relevant to positioning for similar requirements from Westminster City Council. The requirement also favours a consultancy able to provide focused senior advisory input and convert workshop discussions into clear, usable organisational design outputs within a tightly defined engagement. Gartner UK Ltd’s selection shows that a substantial specialist consultancy was considered suitable for this work.
