## Summary

The Westminster Advice Service is a planned procurement initiative by Westminster City Council, intended to commence on 16th September 2018 and running for a period of three years until 15th September 2021. The primary aim of this contract is to provide comprehensive generalist and tailored advice to residents of Westminster within the guidance and counselling services sector. This contract will incorporate various service elements and will be offered as a single contract without subdivision into lots. The procurement process is currently at the planning stage, with relevant documentation available for review on the Capital eSourcing platform.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth for businesses capable of delivering guidance and counselling services. Organisations, including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), may find this contract particularly suitable, either individually or as part of a consortium. By participating in this procurement, businesses can contribute to a critical service that supports the community in Westminster while enhancing their own service delivery capabilities and market reach.

## Notice

Westminster City Council (the Council) currently provides independent advice and support to the residents of Westminster. The Council is commissioning generalist and tailored advice provision under a single contract, as it has in recent years. This single, overarching contract incorporates a number of service elements, at varying degrees of specialism, which are best delivered in a coordinated way rather than in isolation. On this basis the contract is not subdivided into discreet lots. However the contract could be provided by one organisation or a consortium of organisations to support the delivery of all elements of the specification. The Council intends to award the contract for an initial period of three (3) years. Additional information: Tender documents can be obtained from the following portal: www.capitalesourcing.com
