## Summary

The Department for Education in the United Kingdom recently completed a procurement process for the provision of Children's Services advisory in Gloucestershire. This tender, aimed at improving children's social care services, was published on 18 January 2021. The procurement method was selective, involving a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The contract, valued at £32,400, commenced on 13 April 2020 and concluded on 31 March 2021, having been awarded to Burgess Consultancy Ltd. The relevant industry category for this procurement falls under health and social work services.

This procurement presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in consultancy services related to children's social care and social work. Firms that have established expertise in improving care services, particularly those with a focus on turning around inadequacies as highlighted by regulatory bodies such as Ofsted, will find themselves well-positioned to compete in similar tenders. Suppliers that are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may especially benefit from these upcoming opportunities to engage with a significant governmental body.

## Notice

The adviser will support the authority in continuing to develop and implement robust, realistic and achievable plans to improve its children's social care services, in particular those areas which have been judged by Ofsted to be inadequate or where serious concerns have been identified
