Industrial relations

Workforce & Community Engagement

 

Employees are vital to the success of any business; change is unsettling. We have excellent experience of establishing and nurturing positive employee engagement structures to support change programmes. This may be by way of employee surveys or the creation of focus groups and employee forums, who engage with the business.

With growth in innovative technology and changing expectations of employees, organisations need to be equipped with strong platforms for managing substantial changes.

Procurement challenges: What documents and information are bidders entitled to?

A tricky feature of public procurement challenges for unsuccessful bidders is that contracting authorities usually hold all the cards. When the outcome of a tender conducted under the Procurement Act 2023 has been decided, authorities must provide bidders with an Assessment Summary containing their scores for each of the award criteria and those of the successful bidder and an explanation for those scores.
