WLASS has entered into master agreements with a range of skilled consultants. The panel was established in July 2019 and is in place for five years. This contract reduces time and cost associated with engaging consultants with pre-negotiated fees and a more efficient engagement process.
We get lots of requests to join the panel but, having gone out to the market widely, the Councils agreed that additions would only be considered if there was a skills gap on the existing panel. A review of the panel will be undertaken two years into the contract.
