This initiative will sit alongside excellent delivery of core services that the city relies upon and the evolving work of the City Board. The statement of ambition will consist of a vision for place/community (and how it is developed) and what that means for development of the Council's capabilities. The project should utilise a two phase draw down approach, with phase 1 being completed by September 2020. The requirements for phase 1 are set out below and should require an estimate of 30 days to complete (until September 2020). This will then provide the opportunity to review the requirements for Phase 2 which will be commissioned separately at a later date. The requirements: o Set-up and planning (prior to engagement and week 1) o Staff Interviews: developing the initial hypothesis and story (Weeks 2 - 4) o Workshops with Senior Colleagues: Testing reactions and co-developing ideas (Week 4 - 12) The Contract will be for a period of up to 3 months.
