To deliver this Procurement there are some key considerations for addressing:
- Network Companies are all at various stages of transformational journeys, potentially incorporating organisational change, restructuring and transition. Lead and Support Networks engaging, are doing so to complement the work they are already undertaking, seeing the value of this exercise in its additionality. The supplier should recognise that tailored plans for a Licensee must reflect and build upon the work already in progress.
- Lead networks are engaging on the understanding that for a supplier to deliver, there must be top-down organisation access and buy-in.
- Other, recent, consultancy led engagements have been delivered on behalf of Network Companies. The supplier should acknowledge and build from any relevant actions arising from these previous engagements. There should be no element of duplication.
- The supplier will be responsible for developing an engagement plan. This will ensure Lead Networks are clear on the breadth, depth and timing of access the Supplier will need to the relevant people/teams within their Company.
- It may be of particular benefit to facilitate some of the activity via a ‘creative workshop(s)’ with the Lead Networks, perhaps including the Regulator and a selection of Retailers on occasion.
- IUK presence at relevant sessions may also be called upon.
