## About this tender

Tower Hamlets is one of the most improving councils in the country. We have Investors in People status council-wide and are also proud to have achieved the highest level of the Equality Standard. However, the Council continues to face significant financial challenges due to the governmentâ&#128;&#153;s ongoing austerity measures which will result in further reductions to the Public sector funding envelope.

The Council currently spends a total of Â£1.2bn on its activities, including schools and Tower Hamlets Homes and has a net General Fund revenue budget of Â£362m in 2016/17. We estimate that savings of some Â£60m will be required over the MTFS period 2017/18 to 2019/20.

Understanding and prioritising all of the Council's resources over the medium term â&#128;&#147; both revenue and capital â&#128;&#147; is critical to its future financial sustainability and service effectiveness. In order to address these financial challenges, the Council will need to;

ï&#130;§ Manage its resources in the context of funding uncertainties, a rising population and increasing demand for some of its key services including adult social care.

ï&#130;§ Radically change how the Council prioritises and allocates its resources, including through investment and saving decisions

ï&#130;§ Create a better alignment of Council budget/services to its Strategic Priorities.

The Council has set up Transformation Programme to identify and deliver the savings required and this contract is intended to secure a strategic partner who will provide support and specialist expertise to the Councils saving/ transformation programme over the MTFS period.

The strategic partner will be required to:

ï&#130;§ Assist in devising a longer term savings strategy for the Council covering the MTFS period

ï&#130;§ Embed the outcome based budgeting methodology to support the process

ï&#130;§ Support member participation and wider stakeholder engagement in the process

ï&#130;§ Bring specialized knowledge and expertise on implementing cross cutting and transformation change

ï&#130;§ Support the use of a robust project management discipline and methodology

ï&#130;§ Bring innovative solutions that will help deliver council services at lower cost.

ï&#130;§ The contract is expected to span 3 years over the MTFS period and core costs will be in the region of Â£250k to Â£400k per annum, potentially Â£750k to Â£1,200k over period. Separately commissioned work either through the partner or directly by the Council will supplement these resources. The work will underpin delivery of a Â£60m savings programme.
