This procurement exercise aims to identify a competent supplier with the resources to support the council in ways of working coaching. The supplier should have capability primarily in Lean and Agile (preference to SAFe experience). DevOps knowledge is also valued. We will likely need a base capability of approximately three coaches to support operating model shifts in ICT (launching new teams and new Agile Release Trains) over the next 12 months. This may ramp up at peak times, so we need the ability to source capable coaches quickly from the supplier pool. Coaches will be required to support delivery teams, but also develop standards and processes, ensure effective implementation of metrics, and work alongside internal coaches to build capability. Based on the outcome of the sourcing activity, at least three selected suppliers will be awarded an MSA contract for a two-year duration. This will be followed by a project-specific statement of works (SoW) contracts as per council requirements.
