## Summary

The procurement process involves the Department for Education, which has successfully completed a tender for an Adviser role in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council. The contract was initiated to enhance children's social care services, with a budget of £31,500. This direct procurement method was executed as a single tender action, emphasising the urgency and specificity of the requirement in the health and social work services sector. The contract period commenced on 1st September 2020 and concluded on 31st March 2021.

This tender presents opportunities particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in health and social work services. Businesses equipped with expertise in children's social care and those capable of delivering strategic support and management within this field would be well-suited to compete. Engaging in such tenders can help organisations to expand their portfolios, foster partnerships with local authorities, and contribute significantly to community welfare initiatives.

## Notice

The Leadership Improvement Partner is expected to support the Council to prioritise children's social care services, to co-ordinate action and to implement change in a strategic way. This will include managing the resources and expertise required to improve those areas of practice that Ofsted has judged to be inadequate
