## Summary

The public procurement process for the "Aurora Workstream 7 Change Management support" has been successfully completed with the award status marked as active and dated 13th February 2026. The buyer, the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA), based in London, sought general management consultancy services as part of a selective procurement method facilitated through a framework agreement, culminating on 13th February 2026. The contract is valued at £111,487.50 and spans a service period starting on 16th February 2026 and ending on 31st March 2026. This project was awarded to Methods Business and Digital Technology Ltd., which underscores the department's commitment to organised change management across a range of geographic locations including the United Kingdom, Europe, and beyond.

This contract opportunity presents a significant avenue for businesses specialising in management consultancy to grow within the framework of delivering organisational change management services. Although this call-off from a framework agreement was awarded, similar opportunities would be well-suited for entities that can offer strategic support in change management and those that can adapt to the delivery needs across international locations. The procurement category being services highlights continued prospects in consultancy roles, particularly for larger businesses given the unsuitability for SMEs and VCSEs as indicated in the tender document. Businesses proficient in working with governmental frameworks and capable of executing projects efficiently in a similar domain would find such contracts beneficial for expanding their market presence.
