Management Consultancy Framework - Market Engagement

Yorkshire Water is conducting preliminary market engagement to develop a Management Consultancy Framework that will provide access to a wide range of consultancy services. The framework will support the organization's strategic, operational, organizational, and regulatory objectives. Potential service areas include business transformation, operational improvement, strategy development, organizational design, programme and project delivery, change management, procurement and commercial advisory, customer and stakeholder insight, data and analytics, financial and economic analysis, policy and regulatory support, and sustainability consulting. Yorkshire Water is seeking input from suppliers with relevant expertise across the water sector and wider industries to help shape the framework's scope, structure, and delivery model. Through this engagement, the organization aims to understand current market capabilities, supplier capacity, emerging industry trends, innovative delivery approaches, and framework design options. Suppliers interested in participating in market engagement activities are invited to express their interest. Feedback will inform the framework development, including service scope, lot structures, contractual arrangements, commercial models, and procurement strategy. This is a market-sounding exercise for information-gathering purposes only and does not constitute a formal procurement, call for competition, or commitment to purchase services. Participation does not provide any advantage in future procurement processes.
