Wakefield Council staff survey

The Council of the City of Wakefield

Wakefield Council wishes to engage with the market to understand it's requirements for a staff survey. The survey should increase participation, build strong confidence in anonymity, generate actionable insight, and ensure inclusive access for colleagues. Wakefield Council employs approximately 5,000 staff (excluding Schools) across five directorates: Children and Young People (CYP), Adults and Health, Resources, Chief Executive, and Regeneration Environment and Economic Growth. Recent staff survey completion rates have declined from 43% in 2021 to 31.6% in 2023, with a target of 50% completion rates going forward. Internal insight shows high willingness to participate, but key barriers include concerns about anonymity, limited visible action following surveys, accessibility challenges, and overly complex reporting. The Council's ambition is to strengthen staff voice, improve insight for managers, and support delivery of its People Strategy by creating a more engaging, accessible, and actionable survey approach

Standing Joint Command (SJC) Integrated Physical Security Capability

Ministry of Defence

The Authority intends to engage with the market to inform the potential procurement of an integrated physical security capability. The Ministry of Defence (MOD) relies on a diverse and often legacy set of physical security technologies—including access control systems, CCTV, intrusion detection, and perimeter security solutions—to protect personnel, infrastructure, and sensitive assets across a wide and geographically dispersed estate. The current technology landscape is fragmented, with a variety of systems installed over time without consistent standards, interoperability, or integration. This fragmentation creates several critical issues: • Limited interoperability and integration: Existing systems typically operate in isolation, preventing real-time data sharing and a unified operational view of security across sites. This reduces situational awareness and slows decision-making during incidents. • Reliance on legacy infrastructure: Many systems are outdated, difficult to maintain or upgrade, increasing operational risk and lifecycle costs while reducing resilience against evolving threats. • Inconsistent capability across the estate: Variation in technology deployment results in uneven levels of protection • Inefficient use of personnel: Limited automation and integration places significant reliance on workforce-intensive processes, reducing efficiency and increasing the burden on already stretched security personnel. • Data underutilisation: Security data is collected but not effectively aggregated or analysed, limiting the MOD’s ability to derive insights, predict threats, and optimise resource allocation. As threats become more complex, hybrid, and technologically advanced, the current physical security technology solution is not adequately positioned to deliver a coherent, scalable, and future-ready defence posture. We need an intelligent, standardised approach to deliver site specific, scalable, threat driven security system that enables national situationa
