## About this tender

### Financial reviews of local authorities

Based on demand over previous years, it is estimated there will be 10 reviews per financial year. The exact number of reviews will be determined by demand from local authorities with responsibility for adult social care. These reviews will be shared amongst the pool of reviewers based on availability and relevant skills, knowledge, and experience. Each reviewer may expect to conduct up to four reviews per financial year.

Each review is estimated to take a maximum of eight days to complete, including producing the draft report and taking part in an online feedback session with the local authority.

Each review is the result of an initial discussion between the DASS (and often the CFO) of a local authority and the National Care & Health Improvement Adviser Finance and the Regional Care & Health Improvement Adviser to assess whether the authority should be a priority for a review, based on criteria set out by PCH and any other relevant factors.

Once an authority is agreed as a priority for review, the national adviser discusses with the DASS which finance reviewer should undertake the work considering each reviewer’s availability and relevant knowledge and experiences:

•Contractors will be contacted as reviews become available

•The LGA will have the right to consider factors such as suppliers’ special competences, personal styles and a council’s own choices, in allocating assignments.

•The supplier will have the right to turn down any offer of assignment.

The objective of each review is to produce a report for a specific council targeted on financial pressures in adult social care, and suggesting ways to improve management of financial risk.

The reviewer will:

•agree a scoping report with a local authority that has been identified by the national advisor as a priority for financial review;

•conduct a detailed review of the authority’s financial management of adult social care compared to best practice, including e.g. use of resources, budget-setting, budget management, savings and transformation plans;

•produce a draft report to be assured by the national adviser, setting out the findings of the review and suggestions for improvement in financial management;

•attend a meeting with the local authority, alongside the national advisor, to discuss the draft report; and

•revise the draft report, if required, after the meeting with the local authority.
