## Summary

The Ministry of Justice has recently completed a procurement process for consultancy services, titled "IMB & Lay Observer Secretariat - Org Design", focusing on business and management consultancy within the UK. The contract, which holds a value of £25,000, adopted a direct procurement method through a single tender action. The tender period concluded on 18 January 2019, with the contract effective from 4 February 2019 to 31 March 2019. The designated delivery locations include various regions such as Leeds and the British Overseas Territories.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in management and human resources consultancy services. Businesses capable of providing strategic insights into organisational design and efficiency are particularly well-suited for this tender. The successful supplier, Develop UK Partners Ltd, highlights the potential for similar firms to engage with government contracts, particularly in improving internal processes and training support for public sector organisations.

## Notice

5.1 In order to provide better training, communications and policy support (some of which has already been put in place), there need to be efficiencies in other areas in order for the Secretariat to remain within a reasonable funding envelope. Simplifying line management chains, mapping of existing role profiles against current need, and digitisation of administrative processes will all need to be considered as part of this work.
