Given the scale of WPS and its importance to the delivery of DWP services, additional resource is required on the programme to support its delivery and ensure efficiency and best practice throughout to ensure that milestones are met on time and encouraging innovation and providing recommendations to improve delivery.\nThe high-level scope of the contract is as follows:\n•\tProcurement Support \n•\tExisting Contracts Demobilisation \n•\tSupply Chain Mobilisation \n•\tChange Management \n•\tTransition Management \n•\tCutover\nDWP Estates require the continuation of the services EY are providing as they are essential to the success of the WPS programme. These are an effective PMO function that has the capacity and capability to support the Workplace Services Programme, to minimise business disruption and ensure the new contracts are delivered on time. As well as access to additional Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to deliver the Workplace Services Programme.\nThis Change Request is for the continuation of the existing service that is delivered by EY. Due to shifting timelines for the WPS Programme the Mobilisation of the WPS contracts have been delayed by DWP. This has had an impact on EY delivering some of the outcomes in the current specification."
