## Summary

Cambridgeshire County Council and Northamptonshire County Council have completed an invitation to tender under Lot 2 of the National LGPS Framework for Benefit Consultancy Services, with LGSS acting as the purchasing authority. The procurement took place in the East of England, with the contract valued at £600,000 agreed upon on 22nd December 2017. The contract period is set to commence on 1st April 2018 and will run until 31st March 2024, as the procurement process reached its award stage with the tender period concluding on 21st December 2017.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in pension fund consultancy services. Firms with expertise in providing benefits consultancy, particularly those that can deliver comprehensive support to local government pension schemes, would be well-positioned to compete for similar contracts in the future. As the procurement was conducted through a framework, businesses familiar with structured tenders and those that can showcase previous work with public sector clients will likely find avenues for growth in this area.
