## Summary

The public procurement process led by London Councils Limited, with a buyer identifier of GB-COH-03037449, culminated in awarding a contract on 30th October 2025. This procurement sought services to embed a missions-based approach in London, aimed at building capability and capacity around missions, fostering partnerships, and enhancing leadership systems. Taking place in London (region UKI31), this procurement falls under the industry category of research services with a CPV classification of 73110000. The procurement method was limited competition, specifically a below threshold tender, with the contract now active and set to last until 31st March 2026, with a potential extension to the same date in 2027.

This tender presents a robust opportunity for businesses specialising in research and consultancy services, particularly those equipped to deliver learning sessions, workshops, and resources as outlined in the contract renewal conditions. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in systems leadership and mission-driven initiatives, such as the supplier Inner Circle Consulting Limited, which was awarded the contract, stand to benefit significantly. The focus on London-specific missions and partnerships can facilitate business growth opportunities in local governance and public sector support networks, capitalising on the strategic implementation of mission-based methodologies.

## Notice

We are looking to build capability and capacity around the missions-based approach, reflecting London's context, with the aim of deepening partnerships and enhancing systems leadership, working through a common understanding of the approach and common tools and operating methods. The key objectives for the provider to consider are: * Understand and develop the principles, values and behaviours underpinning London's missions-based approach. * Support the mission London team to embed these across the missions, supporting teams to create clear and tangible action plans. * Build capacity and systems leadership capabilities amongst the leadership of London's missions. * Support partners across all six missions and beyond to develop new ways of working across the city.
