Strategic Partnership with provider of Organisational Development Support

Tender description

Birmingham East and North Primary Care Trust is an NHS body which invests some £630m pa to improve health and ensure access to high quality services for 460,000 people on the Eastern half of the largest metropolitan body in Europe. The PCT has a national reputation for performance and innovation. We have an established approach to organisational design and are now seeking a partner for a 3-5 year framework agreement to support our continuing development and improvement. The preferred partner will have a track record in working with large organisations (minimum 700 employees) across a variety of sectors and internationally, over a period of years. The organisation will have core competence and extensive experience in large group interventions, strategic change, participative re-design, process design and improvement and polarity management. They will have clear models of organisational design and sustainability and be able to apply these in problem-solving and strategy in addition to development. The focus of relationship will be with BENPCT but as the PCT is at the heart of a network of partnerships, the Organisational Development (OD) partner will demonstrate a track record of working at the interface of organisations, engaging other stakeholders, including the public in OD activity. In this context, BENPCT seeks a framework agreement which would cover all NHS bodies, creating the potential for other NHS partners to access services from our OD partner through us.
