## Summary

North West Leicestershire District Council is inviting tenders for a Procurement Support Service. This tender, classified under "Administration, defence and social security services" and additional categories such as "Business and management consultancy and related services," seeks to establish a comprehensive procurement support system for various regulatory frameworks and local authority contract procedures in England. The tender process is currently active, with a procurement stage of Tender, and follows an open procedure above the threshold. Key dates include the tender period ending on 30th August 2024 at 12:00 PM, and the contract period from 1st October 2024 to 30th September 2027.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses with expertise in procurement and commercial strategy. The comprehensive support service required includes pre-procurement planning, market assessments, and tendering advice, making it an ideal opportunity for firms specialising in public sector procurement and business consultancy. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to compete, given the criteria of the tender. Successful companies will contribute to the consolidation of robust, standardised procurement processes and enhance the resource capacity of the council, driving long-term efficiencies.

## Notice

The Authorities require an end-to-end procurement support service for all procurement and contracting activities to ensure compliance with UK regulations, and the individual contract procedure rules for each Authority. The Supplier will provide expert pre procurement, market assessment, commercial strategy, tendering advice and support by combining the strength of their public sector procurement expertise, and local authority contracted services knowledge, to help achieve our goals for integration, collaboration and efficiencies, whilst navigating the required regulatory frameworks. The Supplier will provide a "turn-key" service for planned and ad-hoc procurement activities, providing access to expert procurement and commercial knowledge, strategies and support, with provision of an e-procurement/e-tendering portal for PCR2015, The Procurement Act 2023 and future legislation compliant tendering. The aim is to establish robust standardised procurement processes and procedures, with standardised documentation, whilst adding resource capacity and resilience to each authority, thereby enhancing the overall procurement framework within the organisations.
