Description

UK6 - Contract Award Notice for the development of a Business Case exploring the future transformation of care and support services offered by the Council. The Business Case will assess the viability and development of a Specialist Children’s Assessment Centre provision covering Wrexham and Flintshire, as a joint venture led by Wrexham County Borough Council and in collaboration with Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board and Education. We are looking to commission an externally based, highly experienced consultancy company to undertake the development of a Business Case (SOC/OBC) to support the initial work undertaken in workshops that explored the concept and need for such a provision. Work will include desktop research, online and face to face stakeholder engagement, and documented research to establish the needs and gaps in provision across the two authorities in order to inform our development plans.
