Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, as they can bring innovative solutions and local knowledge to support the council's objectives. ## Notice The Council requires a contractor to work with the Interim Chief Executive and Council Leadership Team as they develop a collective vision/ambition statement and strategic planning framework for the Council that engages partners and builds collective leadership amongst system leaders around a clear set of shared goals.

The requirements for phase 1 are set out below and should require an estimate of 30 days to complete (until September 2020).
