We helped Southampton City Council select a strategic partner to help transform a broad range of support functions so the Council is well placed to achieve efficiency gains.

Southampton City Council

Selecting a strategic partner

Southampton City Council (SCC) engaged PA Conulting Group to help secure a private sector strategic services partner to help transform a broad range of support functions such as Customer Services, HR and Payroll, Local Taxation and Benefits, ICT, Procurement and Property Services.

PA advised SCC in the planning and selection of a strategic services partner and throughout the process provided tactical guidance. PA equipped the client team with the skills necessary to manage bidder engagements and run competitive negotiations

Following PA’s work with SCC, the Council is well placed to achieve efficiency gains from using a strategic partner.

PA’s advice throughout the procurement process provides SCC with:

• significant capital investment and performance regime linking payments to results

• a culture of mutual respect where challenging issues are approached with a results-driven joint mindset

• a one-council transformation governance structure ensuring that all change projects demonstrate a viable business case before sign-off.
