As Councils Merge, Existing Relationships Will Change
As councils merge and new unitary authorities are established, existing relationships, procurement structures and contract portfolios will change. Some opportunities will become larger and more strategic, while others may be consolidated or redesigned. Waiting until new authorities are fully operational may be too late. Specifications, partnerships and routes to market could already have been shaped by better-informed competitors.
