## Summary

The public procurement contracting process was carried out by The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London, aiming to secure consultancy work for the CLF. This procurement falls under the services industry category with a specific focus on technical services, as identified by CPV code 71356000. Located in the City of London, the procurement process has been completed, with the contract starting on 31st August 2025 and concluding on 31st March 2026. It was initiated as a direct procurement method, specifically falling below threshold without competition, and was finalized with the award and contract tags on 4th September 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for consultancy firms, particularly those with expertise in technical services and supported employment. As the contract was awarded to Jon Smith, an independent consultant, businesses with similar capabilities and experience may find such procurement processes beneficial for growth. Companies experienced in large-scale private service provision, comparable to Jon Smith's background with major firms like Serco, will be well-suited to participate in similar opportunities initiated by public authorities such as the City of London.

## Notice

We approached: - Commercial providers of supported employment services, with whom we are contracted for other services. They did not quote as they do not provide this sort of service. - Jon Smith, an independent consultant. He quoted PS800/day, though there may be some flexibility on this. - Inner Circle Consulting (ICC), a local government services provider. They quoted PS800/day for a Senior Consultant. It was clear that the ICC team does not have the relevant depth of programme expertise in the supported employment space to be able to hit the ground running and provide immediate additional resource. Given that Jon Smith, who has much more experience in this area - including working for a large private services provider (Serco) - was the same price, we are planning to use him for this work
