This is a framework agreement for providing community consultation and engagement services to a UK government body. The buyer is looking for one or more suppliers who can help them listen to, communicate with, and involve communities in their decisions and programmes over a multi-year period.
Requirements
- No specific requirements listed in the notice — check the full tender documents.
- You will need to review the full procurement documentation to find qualifications, insurance, experience standards, and any sector-specific accreditations required.
Key Tasks & Deliverables
- Design and deliver community consultation activities (surveys, focus groups, workshops, etc.)
- Develop and manage engagement strategies that reach diverse community groups
- Gather, analyse and report on community feedback and insights
- Provide advice and recommendations based on community input
- Support the buyer in communicating decisions back to communities
- Ensure consultation activities are inclusive and reach hard-to-reach groups
How to Read This Tender
- 1This is a 'framework agreement' — not a single one-off project. It means you're agreeing to be available to do work over a set period (usually 2-4 years), and the buyer will call off individual pieces of work as needed. You won't get all the money upfront.
- 2The description is very brief, so the real detail will be in the full tender documents (usually a PDF or Word specification). Download and read those carefully — they'll explain the scope, timescales, budget, and how you'll be evaluated.
- 3Look for the 'call-off' or 'ordering' section — this explains how the buyer will actually request work from you once the framework is live (e.g. 'they'll email you a brief, you have 5 days to quote').
- 4Check for 'social value' scoring — government contracts often require you to explain how your work benefits communities, the environment, or local employment. Communities & Engagement work scores well here if you can show you'll employ local people or involve grassroots organisations.
- 5Identify if this is a single-supplier or multi-supplier framework — if it's multi-supplier, you might win some but not all the work, so competition continues even after you're selected.
Tips for Small Businesses
- Subcontracting opportunity: If you're not big enough to deliver everything alone, partner with local community organisations, research firms, or translation services to strengthen your bid. Name them in your proposal.
- Social value is key in these contracts — emphasise how you'll involve local communities in delivering the work itself (e.g. training community members as researchers, working with grassroots groups, hiring locally). This often scores as well as price.
- Framework agreements tie up your capacity, so make sure you can resource work at short notice. Many buyers expect quick turnarounds on consultation briefs. Factor this into your pricing and staffing plan.
