## Notice

This "Commissioning Self-assessment" aims to support ASC commissioners reflect on the effectiveness of their current approaches, actions and behaviours across key aspects of ASC commissioning and identify areas they wish to improve and the sort of steps that could be part of their improvement journey. This resource will also help councils make best use of information and intelligence to support their ASC commissioning. This resource will complement other support available through the PCH commissioning workstream, the rest of PCH support and ADASS regional teams. It will also learn from previous self-assessment related work undertaken by PCH. 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.
