## Summary

The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham commissioned strategic consultancy services for its Neighbourhoods of Care and Connection programme. The work covers a strategic review, engagement with providers, support for the transition to Individual Service Funds (ISF), development of commissioning intentions, and implementation planning. It is intended to support the programme’s development and delivery over three years. The buyer is the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, based in London, and the service relates to delivery in the United Kingdom. The procurement is categorised as research and development consultancy services. This is a public-sector transformation and commissioning assignment for a supplier with expertise in care, health or community services strategy and implementation.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. It was a single-lot process. Citizen Network Limited was selected, and the contract was signed on 31 July 2026. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 3 June 2028. Its value is £30,000 excluding VAT and £36,000 including VAT. The contract is active. The requirement was evaluated through the limited competition route, with the successful award covering the full Neighbourhoods of Care and Connection implementation and consultation service. The award relates to research and development consultancy services and is below the applicable threshold.

This procurement indicates demand from Hammersmith and Fulham for specialist support to redesign and implement neighbourhood-based care and connection services. A credible competitor for similar work would need to combine strategic review, provider engagement, commissioning strategy and practical implementation planning. Experience of Individual Service Funds and the transition to new funding or operating models would be directly relevant, as would the ability to work with public-sector commissioners and care providers. The requirement suits a focused consultancy or social-purpose organisation able to provide senior advice, facilitate engagement and turn service-design recommendations into an implementable programme. The award to an SME shows that the work can be delivered by a comparatively small specialist provider rather than only a large consultancy.

## Notice

The Service should provide strategic support for the development and implementation of the Neighbourhoods of Care and Connection programme, including the strategic review, provider engagement, ISF transition support, commissioning intentions development and implementation planning over three years.
