## Summary

The Local Government Association is initiating a public procurement contract titled "Implications of new ways of working for combined authorities." This project falls under the research services category and is located in London, United Kingdom. The procurement method is open, and the tender is currently at the planning stage, with a deadline for tender submissions set for 14th January 2022. The total contract value is £25,000, and it is anticipated to start on 18th January 2022, finishing by 31st March 2022. The contracting authority encourages participation from small and medium enterprises (SMEs).

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in research and consultancy services that focus on human resources and organisational development. Companies with expertise in implementing hybrid working models or those that can provide insights into the unique challenges faced by combined authorities will be well-suited to compete for this contract. Engaging in this procurement process could enable businesses to enhance their visibility and credibility within the public sector marketplace.

## Notice

The successful bidder will work with the combined authorities HR network and their wider teams to gather evidence, learning and best practice to create two products: a pen portrait of each of the combined authorities from an HR perspective, looking at how these are distinct from councils and even each other, and a guide to support combined authorities to implement and embed new hybrid models of working. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
