Consultancy Framework

To support the development and continuous improvement of this framework, we have undertaken targeted stakeholder engagement with existing framework suppliers and participating contracting authorities. As part of this process, tailored questionnaires will be issued to those groups on 12th October 2026 to gather stakeholder-specific feedback, market intelligence and opportunities for service improvement. In the interests of transparency and to ensure that all interested organisations have an opportunity to contribute to the engagement process, we are also inviting the wider market to attend one of our Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) sessions. Supplier Engagement Sessions: Potential suppliers and existing providers are invited to attend the supplier engagement sessions on the below dates: Session 1 – Compliance Consultants Date: 19th January 2027 Time: 10:00 – 11:30 Organisations wishing to attend session 1 should register their interest using the following link: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/9Twj3fstTU Session 2 – Asset Consultants Date: 12th January 2027 Time: 11:00 – 12:30 Organisations wishing to attend session 2 should register their interest using the following link: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/Yrk7gKgZTb Session 3 – Development Consultants Date: 18th January 2027 Time: 10:00 – 11:30 Organisations wishing to attend session 3 should register their interest using the following link: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/wEEaaW2gYC Session 4 - Consumer Regulation and Resident Services Consultancy  Date: 19th January 2027 Time: 13:00 – 14:00 Organisations wishing to attend session 4 should register their interest using the following link: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/94USHpgLdE Session 5 - Local Government Reorganisation and Transformation Consultancy Date: 21st January 2027 Time: 12:00 – 13:00 Organisations wishing to attend session 5 should register their interest using the following link: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/wjnRfpX4zx Please note that attendance is limited to registered participants.
