Diagnostic and transformation programme

Descriptions

Local government across the UK is facing a challenging financial landscape, with rising demand for services, increasing costs, and constraints on funding. Oldham Council is no exception, facing significant demand pressures across key services, particularly within Children's Services, Adults' Social Care, and Temporary Accommodation. This diagnostic will provide an evidence-based approach to managing these pressures, ensuring services remain sustainable while improving outcomes for residents. The Council is seeking a delivery partner to undertake a diagnostic assessment that identifies cost-saving opportunities, operational efficiencies, and new ways of working that will better manage demand and enhance service quality.
