Client Story: Highways Contract Procurement and Service Improvement Plan
Founds Group played a pivotal role in the development and ongoing delivery of WBC’s highways contract extension and future contract strategy. Our involvement evolved from a procurement exercise into the creation of a Service Improvement Plan, a framework that enabled the Council to address internal cultural changes and enhance service delivery.
In order to deliver impact, we bring our vast experience and blend it with the ability to knowledge share across key highways, Local Authorities and placemaking stakeholders.
