What is being bought

Published requirement description

WCC is commissioning a partner to deliver an organisation-wide diagnostic of commercial practices particularly in contract management, and to design a commercial function and commercial strategy. This work will provide the foundation for a whole-council approach that is flexible, commercially robust, and aligned to strategic priorities.

The diagnostic is a strategic enabler designed to:

  • Improve commercial capability and governance
  • Reduce duplication and inefficiencies
  • Enhance value for money
  • Strengthen commercial engagement
  • Drive commercial value through contract management
  • Support the development of a commercially astute organisation

This work will cover all directorates and service areas, including demand-led services (Housing, Adult Social Care, Children’s Services, Environment and Communities) and corporate functions.
