## Summary

This contract falls under the services category, specifically focusing on business analysis consultancy services. The procurement stage was completed with the award being issued on 15 June 2025 to Different Drum Consulting, a consultancy based in Poundbury.

This contract presents significant growth potential for businesses specialising in business analysis consultancy services, particularly those geared towards public sector engagements or water efficiency initiatives.
