## Summary

The procurement process for the "Slough Commissioner" was conducted by the Department for Education, focusing on health and social work services. This contract, valued at £76,800, falls within the services category and is situated in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method used was selective, via a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender period concluded on 19 March 2021, with the contract having started on 1 April 2021 and set to end on 31 March 2022.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in children's social care transformation, particularly those skilled in delivering services in partnership with local authorities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) may find themselves well-suited to compete, given the focus on improving services for vulnerable children and collaborating with senior council leaders and partner organisations.

## Notice

The Commissioner will play a high profile role in a challenging political and delivery environment. He or she will bring extensive and proven skills in children's social care transformation to deliver a robust assessment as to how improvements to services for the most vulnerable children can best be secured within the local context. In doing so, the Commissioner will set expectations for how services might best be delivered outside of council control, leading and brokering relationships with senior council leaders and their partner organisations. Alongside this, the Commissioner will direct work to secure urgent improvements to ensure that children in the Authority are safe.
