## Summary

The public procurement process pertains to the "Establishing Single Programme" contract, initiated by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, located in London, England. This procurement falls under the industry category of "Business and management consultancy and related services." The procurement method employed is selective, with a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period concluded on 18th January 2021, with the contract awarded for a total value of £67,500 for services that needed to be delivered from 15th February 2021 to 26th March 2021.

This procurement opportunity offers significant potential for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in consultancy and change management services. Companies capable of demonstrating expertise in delivering transformational change projects, such as capability building and organisational development, would be particularly well-suited to compete in this sector. The contract can be a strategic avenue for businesses aiming to enhance their service offerings and expand their clientele within government frameworks.

## Notice

Defra wants an independent consideration of its existing internal and external change projects to understand how best to ensure that they have the greatest impact on achieving successful delivery of the significant post-transition work programme facing Defra group. We estimate that this work will take 4-6 weeks to complete, starting early in 2021 and which must complete within financial year 20/21. The work will involve: - articulating the scope of Defra group portfolios, including how we can best marshal existing internal and external work streams, and identifying and scoping work to fill any gaps; - providing examples of and advising on best practice examples of transformational change programmes, including how to equip existing teams to take it forward through capability building and provision of e.g. templates and example products; - baselining the people and capability requirements for this work; - developing a work programme to prepare for the next CSR round, specifically around capability and skills development at an organisation-wide level.
