This tender presents growth opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) capable of providing expert advisory services. With a focus on overseeing and driving forward improvement plans, businesses with experience in health and social care, change management, and independent assessments would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar future contracts. Engaging in this sector not only fosters business expansion but also contributes to enhancing public services.

## Notice

The Contractor will provide a clear and sustained focus on the areas for improvement and ensure independent oversight of the authority's progress in line with improvement plans. In doing so, the Adviser is expected to supervise the programme of change that the authority has embarked on, to drive forward the improvements and implement close monitoring arrangements, and build on the work that has already taken place.
