## Description
This consultant appointment is key to that and we are looking for a consultant who truly
wants to work collaboratively with us to share knowledge and support us in increasing our inhouse
capabilities through a flexible approach. As we recruit staff and refine the project,
needs may change and we will have open dialogue with you about progress from both sides,
as well as any change in scope and approach.
Given the scale of the assessments being delivered, we expect to see economies of scale,
particularly as the area based approach should mean repetition of very similar properties and
the ability to reduce travel times by carrying out surveys in constrained area within a single
day.
As Retrofit Coordination requires regular on-site presence we will work with you at the
earliest stages to develop our programme and identify those tranches to go first which will
require an external RC to help you to resource this.
