Supporting Local Authorities

Local authorities are facing unprecedented demand for services, and at a time when budgets and resources are being pushed to their limits. Despite these challenges, authorities are still expected to deliver quality outcomes for the communities they serve. 

Bloom’s managed approach to the procurement of professional services saves our clients money, reduces risk, and provides full visibility throughout the lifetime of a project. On average, our Buyers save 14% against budget – providing value for money for the public.

Our team of procurement experts also recognise the importance of social value to councils and combined authorities. That’s why, throughout the procurement process, we’ll help you plan, deliver, and measure your social value outcomes.
