We are looking for organisations with demonstrable expertise and expertise in: - Community engagement - Facilitating change - Place-based working - Enabling and embedding lived experience in the design of services - Co-designing services with communities - Community capacity-building - Community Asset Transfer - Realising and management community benefits from procurement and commissioning activity ### Lot Information Lot 1 Stirling Council is looking to embed community wealth building principles across all Council services, as part of a changing and transformational approach to community development, and we are looking for partners and stakeholders to help us achieve this vision. Thriving Communities is the interim name given to a programme of work that looks to transform local government services, and cede power in processes that might currently frustrate or limit community empowerment, with the overall aim of unlocking the full potential of Stirling's communities, by mobilising the community expertise and experience that exists across Stirling, for the good of all who live and work here, and those who visit. Thriving Communities aims to: - Improve understanding and ownership of community wealth building in Stirling, so that opportunities to build wealth across Stirling's communities are not overlooked. - Improve the range, visibility, and accessibility of opportunities for meaningful community engagement - making community wealth building everyone's business in Stirling Council. - Identify and embed approaches to service user involvement in service re-design. - Build community resilience, and capacity for (e.g.) community asset transfer. - Ensure decisions made by Council are informed by relevant data, and consistently promote local wealth-building. Stirling Council has developed an initial action plan, based around five emerging themes: - Raising the profile of Community Wealth Building - Promoting Local Wealth - Employability and Career Pathways - Capacity Building - Transformation of Community-Facing Services Can you help us? We believe community wealth building can harness the economic leverage of local 'anchor' organisations like ours, to tackle long standing systemic challenges and structural inequalities within our communities. We want to enable more local communities and people to own, have a stake in, access, and benefit from the wealth their economy generates, contributing to societal equity, and environmental sustainability across Stirling. Additional information: Stirling Council will hold an information day to discuss our requirements further with interested parties. Further Information relating to this event will be released in due course. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/031042-2023 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 20 Oct 2023 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 1 Dec 2023 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | STIRLING COUNCIL | | Locality | STIRLING | | Post town | Falkirk and Stirling | | Postcode | FK7 7QA | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM0 Eastern Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM02 Perth and Kinross, and Stirling | | Local authority | Stirling | | Electoral ward | Stirling East | | Westminster constituency | Stirling and Strathallan | | Delivery location | TLM77 Perth and Kinross, and Stirling | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 75 - Administration, defence and social security services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 85 - Health and social work services - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 75200000 - Provision of services to the community - 79634000 - Career guidance services - 85322000 - Community action programme - 85323000 - Community health services - 98000000 - Other community, social and personal services - 98133100 - Civic betterment and community facility support services ## Release History - 20 Oct 2023 at 12:37 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/031042-2023 ## Notice URLs - http://www.stirling.gov.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000748105 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=748105 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/Search_AuthProfile.aspx?ID=AA00146 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
