We help you define the right route to market, governance and commercial approach to achieve value for money and manage risk. We start by clarifying outcomes, stakeholders, constraints and the level of assurance needed, then shape a sourcing plan that is proportionate to the contract’s complexity. Where appropriate, we support pre-market engagement to improve bidder understanding and response quality. We help you define evaluation priorities that reflect what matters most to service delivery, not just price. We also consider the downstream contract management model so performance can be monitored and enforced after award. Our approach is aligned to public procurement requirements in general terms and designed to be auditable.

We design evaluation models that are objective, transparent and defensible, then support moderation and scoring to ensure consistency. We help define scoring guidance that enables evaluators to score against evidence, not opinion, and reduces the risk of challenge. We can support evaluation planning, moderation sessions and documentation so outcomes are recorded clearly. We also assist with clarification management to ensure bidder responses are handled consistently and captured properly. Throughout, we maintain a clean decision trail that supports governance, approvals and audit requirements. The result is a more confident award decision with reduced risk and stronger justification.

We help set up and run contract management in a way that drives performance and protects the buyer. We support the establishment of KPIs, reporting cadence, governance meetings and escalation routes so expectations are clear from day one. We help manage issues, variations and change control with evidence-led records and approvals that are easy to track. Our focus is on keeping performance transparent and ensuring suppliers are held to measurable outcomes. We can support delivery within NEC and JCT environments where required, aligning documentation and processes to contract expectations. The result is better control, fewer surprises and clearer accountability throughout the contract.

We help improve supplier relationships and outcomes through structured governance and performance routines. We support the set-up of supplier review cycles, KPIs and performance dashboards that provide a clear view of delivery. We help turn performance information into actions—agreeing remediation plans, tracking commitments and escalating when necessary. Our approach balances challenge and partnership, focusing on measurable outcomes and continuous improvement. We also support governance documentation so decisions and actions remain auditable and easy to evidence. The result is stronger supplier accountability, improved performance and reduced operational risk.
