## Summary

Telford & Wrekin Council is undertaking a procurement process for the "Grounds and Cleansing Service Review," aimed at assessing future delivery options for its grounds maintenance and street cleansing services. The contract, valued at £18,000, is being offered through an open procedure, with the tender period closing on 26 September 2016. The anticipated contract is expected to commence on 3 October 2016 and run until 11 November 2016, with delivery expected in the West Midlands region of the United Kingdom. The purchasing authority seeks to engage external expertise in business analysis consultancy services to facilitate an options appraisal for future service delivery.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for consultancies specialising in local government services, particularly those with a background in business analysis, management consultancy, and financial advisory roles.

Companies with experience in advising local authorities on cost-reduction strategies and service quality enhancement will find this procurement particularly relevant for growth and expansion within the public sector.

## Notice

Telford and Wrekin Council is looking to procure experienced technical expertise with proven skills in carrying out an options appraisal for the future delivery of the Grounds Maintenance and Street Cleansing service, whether this a wholly externalised service, an in-house only service or mix of in-house and outsourcing. The Council's ground maintenance and street cleansing service is currently delivered through an outsourced contract which will expire at the end of March 2019. The Council is currently considering the best delivery option for the service beyond this time; work has commenced on an options appraisal, but the Council now requires independent expertise to complete the work and make recommendations on the best delivery model for the future operation of the service, taking into account the Council's continuing objectives of reducing costs, enhancing flexibility and improving quality of the service The Council requires commercially focussed and financial expertise with experience of advising local authorities on complex local authority in-sourcing and out-sourcing projects for grounds maintenance and street cleansing to complete the work, this is likely to be needed from early October 2016 to mid November 2016.
