We would welcome EOI’s which cover the following: \n•\tApproaches that could be used to  facilitate discussions within at least 6 urban communities and engagement with residents of rural areas. \n•\tHow digital and in-person methods might be combined to explore priorities and tensions, while surfacing common ground \n•\tApproaches that could be used to facilitate effective engagement of young people  (following any tender process the council can provide links to schools and youth centres, as well as wider community members to the successful supplier). \n•\tApproaches that could be used to engage hard-to-reach groups (following any tender process the council can facilitate links through Services and partners with the successful supplier)\n•\tApproaches that ensure bilingual delivery (Welsh and English) and embed accessibility in the engagement process \n•\tApproaches that could be used to assess number and quality of interactions, in particular from those who have not previously engaged with Council’s survey and engagement work.\nFurther considerations for EOIs:\n• To create a deeply-held future vision, we believe it will be important to draw on the past so would like to understand how local culture and history could be considered in the engagement process.\n• Young people and hard-to-reach groups are experiencing significant day-to-day challenges which may limit their ability to engage with a long-term visioning process – we would want to understand how this and related challenges could be addressed and overcome in the engagement process\n• Outline the types of key questions and/or prompts which may be used in different engagement formats.\n• We would welcome integration of creative methods (e.g., arts-based approaches) in engagement of young people and intergenerational audiences.\n• Previous experience with any digital engagement platforms proposed.\n• We would want to understand the proposed evaluation and learning approach, and how the risk of engagement/consultation fatigue could be managed.\nWe will be holding an online information session for potential suppliers on June 2nd 9:15 – 10:15am. Please register for the information session via the link below:\nhttps://forms.office.com/e/06ikKmxX8P\nFollowing the information session we invite potential suppliers to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) by 5pm on July 8th 2026. The EOI should be a maximum of 5 pages and be submitted via email to procurement@denbighshire.gov.uk.\nFollowing close of this process and prior to any procurement, we may also invite suppliers to provide digital system demonstrations over MS Teams to obtain further information.\nWe do not guarantee that this exercise will result in a procurement exercise.",

For any procurements undertaken, this PME process will help us as we consider our options. These options may include but are not limited to:-\n•\tprocuring one work package but not the other\n•\tcombining the two work packages into one procurement\n•\tprocuring work packages separately and on this basis we would be seeking suppliers who can demonstrate that they are able to work in close partnership with both the Council and another supplier\nOur Corporate Plan sets out what we want to achieve for the people and communities of Denbighshire over the next 5 years.  This Plan meets both our aspirations and obligations under the Well-being of Future Generations Act and the Equality Act and captures our key performance functions for the purposes of The Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021. A key element in the development of the plan is community engagement so that residents and other stakeholders feel confident the plan reflects their priorities. \nThe Council aims to develop and communicate a long-term vision for Denbighshire (looking ahead to 2050 and beyond) that reflects the aspirations and realities of its communities. The process must build trust across diverse community groups and strengthen democratic engagement, particularly reaching those who are underrepresented or have lost confidence in public institutions.\nWe are interested in hearing from organisations who can support us with this as further detailed below (Please note that the dates are provisional and subject to change):-\n•\tJanuary 27 to March 27 - Community engagement with residents and other stakeholders (must be completed by pre-election period c. end of March 2027)\n•\tSeptember 27 to November 2027 – Denbighshire County Council Member, staff and partner engagement, on the Corporate Plan Wellbeing Objectives + 5 Year Programme of Activities\nExpected Outputs and Outcomes \nOutputs\n•\tAn evidence-based long-term vision for Denbighshire [essential] – the presentation of which doesn’t have to be word based.\n•\tAn evidence-based corporate plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities and contribution to regional work [essential]\n•\tAn evidence-based strategic equalities plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities [essential]\n•\tA number of digital or other products which can be used for future engagement with community groups, young people in particular [essential]\n•\tTraining and supported experience for up to 10 council officers in facilitation of community discussions where topics are potentially contentious [desirable].\nOutcomes\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about future challenges and opportunities related to demographics, local government finances, climate and nature.\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about the council’s role and capacity in delivering local services.\n•\tUnderstanding by Council Members, partner organisations and Council employees of their role in delivering the new corporate plan \n•\tIncreased trust and confidence in the council, particularly among those groups with protected characteristics or/and have never engaged with the Council before.\nHigher levels of democratic engagement among residents, particularly young people and hard-to-reach groups.\nIncreased confidence among trained council officers in community facilitation [desirable].\nIndicative budget of £50k - £60k including VAT",

We would welcome EOI’s which cover the following: \n•\tApproaches that could be used to  facilitate discussions within at least 6 urban communities and engagement with residents of rural areas. \n•\tHow digital and in-person methods might be combined to explore priorities and tensions, while surfacing common ground \n•\tApproaches that could be used to facilitate effective engagement of young people  (following any tender process the council can provide links to schools and youth centres, as well as wider community members to the successful supplier). \n•\tApproaches that could be used to engage hard-to-reach groups (following any tender process the council can facilitate links through Services and partners with the successful supplier)\n•\tApproaches that ensure bilingual delivery (Welsh and English) and embed accessibility in the engagement process \n•\tApproaches that could be used to assess number and quality of interactions, in particular from those who have not previously engaged with Council’s survey and engagement work.\nFurther considerations for EOIs:\n• To create a deeply-held future vision, we believe it will be important to draw on the past so would like to understand how local culture and history could be considered in the engagement process.\n• Young people and hard-to-reach groups are experiencing significant day-to-day challenges which may limit their ability to engage with a long-term visioning process – we would want to understand how this and related challenges could be addressed and overcome in the engagement process\n• Outline the types of key questions and/or prompts which may be used in different engagement formats.\n• We would welcome integration of creative methods (e.g., arts-based approaches) in engagement of young people and intergenerational audiences.\n• Previous experience with any digital engagement platforms proposed.\n• We would want to understand the proposed evaluation and learning approach, and how the risk of engagement/consultation fatigue could be managed.\nWe will be holding an online information session for potential suppliers on June 2nd 9:15 – 10:15am. Please register for the information session via the link below:\nhttps://forms.office.com/e/06ikKmxX8P\nFollowing the information session we invite potential suppliers to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) by 5pm on July 8th 2026. The EOI should be a maximum of 5 pages and be submitted via email to procurement@denbighshire.gov.uk.\nFollowing close of this process and prior to any procurement, we may also invite suppliers to provide digital system demonstrations over MS Teams to obtain further information.\nWe do not guarantee that this exercise will result in a procurement exercise.",

For any procurements undertaken, this PME process will help us as we consider our options. These options may include but are not limited to:-\n•\tprocuring one work package but not the other\n•\tcombining the two work packages into one procurement\n•\tprocuring work packages separately and on this basis we would be seeking suppliers who can demonstrate that they are able to work in close partnership with both the Council and another supplier\nOur Corporate Plan sets out what we want to achieve for the people and communities of Denbighshire over the next 5 years.  This Plan meets both our aspirations and obligations under the Well-being of Future Generations Act and the Equality Act and captures our key performance functions for the purposes of The Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021. A key element in the development of the plan is community engagement so that residents and other stakeholders feel confident the plan reflects their priorities. \nThe Council aims to develop and communicate a long-term vision for Denbighshire (looking ahead to 2050 and beyond) that reflects the aspirations and realities of its communities. The process must build trust across diverse community groups and strengthen democratic engagement, particularly reaching those who are underrepresented or have lost confidence in public institutions.\nWe are interested in hearing from organisations who can support us with this as further detailed below (Please note that the dates are provisional and subject to change):-\n•\tJanuary 27 to March 27 - Community engagement with residents and other stakeholders (must be completed by pre-election period c. end of March 2027)\n•\tSeptember 27 to November 2027 – Denbighshire County Council Member, staff and partner engagement, on the Corporate Plan Wellbeing Objectives + 5 Year Programme of Activities\nExpected Outputs and Outcomes \nOutputs\n•\tAn evidence-based long-term vision for Denbighshire [essential] – the presentation of which doesn’t have to be word based.\n•\tAn evidence-based corporate plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities and contribution to regional work [essential]\n•\tAn evidence-based strategic equalities plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities [essential]\n•\tA number of digital or other products which can be used for future engagement with community groups, young people in particular [essential]\n•\tTraining and supported experience for up to 10 council officers in facilitation of community discussions where topics are potentially contentious [desirable].\nOutcomes\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about future challenges and opportunities related to demographics, local government finances, climate and nature.\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about the council’s role and capacity in delivering local services.\n•\tUnderstanding by Council Members, partner organisations and Council employees of their role in delivering the new corporate plan \n•\tIncreased trust and confidence in the council, particularly among those groups with protected characteristics or/and have never engaged with the Council before.\nHigher levels of democratic engagement among residents, particularly young people and hard-to-reach groups.\nIncreased confidence among trained council officers in community facilitation [desirable].\nIndicative budget of £50k - £60k including VAT",

We would welcome EOI’s which cover the following: \n•\tApproaches that could be used to  facilitate discussions within at least 6 urban communities and engagement with residents of rural areas. \n•\tHow digital and in-person methods might be combined to explore priorities and tensions, while surfacing common ground \n•\tApproaches that could be used to facilitate effective engagement of young people  (following any tender process the council can provide links to schools and youth centres, as well as wider community members to the successful supplier). \n•\tApproaches that could be used to engage hard-to-reach groups (following any tender process the council can facilitate links through Services and partners with the successful supplier)\n•\tApproaches that ensure bilingual delivery (Welsh and English) and embed accessibility in the engagement process \n•\tApproaches that could be used to assess number and quality of interactions, in particular from those who have not previously engaged with Council’s survey and engagement work.\nFurther considerations for EOIs:\n• To create a deeply-held future vision, we believe it will be important to draw on the past so would like to understand how local culture and history could be considered in the engagement process.\n• Young people and hard-to-reach groups are experiencing significant day-to-day challenges which may limit their ability to engage with a long-term visioning process – we would want to understand how this and related challenges could be addressed and overcome in the engagement process\n• Outline the types of key questions and/or prompts which may be used in different engagement formats.\n• We would welcome integration of creative methods (e.g., arts-based approaches) in engagement of young people and intergenerational audiences.\n• Previous experience with any digital engagement platforms proposed.\n• We would want to understand the proposed evaluation and learning approach, and how the risk of engagement/consultation fatigue could be managed.\nWe will be holding an online information session for potential suppliers on June 9th 3:30 - 4.30pm. Please register for the information session via the link below:\nhttps://forms.office.com/e/06ikKmxX8P\nFollowing the information session we invite potential suppliers to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) by 5pm on July 8th 2026. The EOI should be a maximum of 5 pages and be submitted via email to procurement@denbighshire.gov.uk.\nFollowing close of this process and prior to any procurement, we may also invite suppliers to provide digital system demonstrations over MS Teams to obtain further information.\nWe do not guarantee that this exercise will result in a procurement exercise.",

For any procurements undertaken, this PME process will help us as we consider our options. These options may include but are not limited to:-\n•\tprocuring one work package but not the other\n•\tcombining the two work packages into one procurement\n•\tprocuring work packages separately and on this basis we would be seeking suppliers who can demonstrate that they are able to work in close partnership with both the Council and another supplier\nOur Corporate Plan sets out what we want to achieve for the people and communities of Denbighshire over the next 5 years.  This Plan meets both our aspirations and obligations under the Well-being of Future Generations Act and the Equality Act and captures our key performance functions for the purposes of The Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021. A key element in the development of the plan is community engagement so that residents and other stakeholders feel confident the plan reflects their priorities. \nThe Council aims to develop and communicate a long-term vision for Denbighshire (looking ahead to 2050 and beyond) that reflects the aspirations and realities of its communities. The process must build trust across diverse community groups and strengthen democratic engagement, particularly reaching those who are underrepresented or have lost confidence in public institutions.\nWe are interested in hearing from organisations who can support us with this as further detailed below (Please note that the dates are provisional and subject to change):-\n•\tJanuary 27 to March 27 - Community engagement with residents and other stakeholders (must be completed by pre-election period c. end of March 2027)\n•\tSeptember 27 to November 2027 – Denbighshire County Council Member, staff and partner engagement, on the Corporate Plan Wellbeing Objectives + 5 Year Programme of Activities\nExpected Outputs and Outcomes \nOutputs\n•\tAn evidence-based long-term vision for Denbighshire [essential] – the presentation of which doesn’t have to be word based.\n•\tAn evidence-based corporate plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities and contribution to regional work [essential]\n•\tAn evidence-based strategic equalities plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities [essential]\n•\tA number of digital or other products which can be used for future engagement with community groups, young people in particular [essential]\n•\tTraining and supported experience for up to 10 council officers in facilitation of community discussions where topics are potentially contentious [desirable].\nOutcomes\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about future challenges and opportunities related to demographics, local government finances, climate and nature.\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about the council’s role and capacity in delivering local services.\n•\tUnderstanding by Council Members, partner organisations and Council employees of their role in delivering the new corporate plan \n•\tIncreased trust and confidence in the council, particularly among those groups with protected characteristics or/and have never engaged with the Council before.\nHigher levels of democratic engagement among residents, particularly young people and hard-to-reach groups.\nIncreased confidence among trained council officers in community facilitation [desirable].\nIndicative budget of £50k - £60k including VAT",

We would welcome EOI’s which cover the following: \n•\tApproaches that could be used to  facilitate discussions within at least 6 urban communities and engagement with residents of rural areas. \n•\tHow digital and in-person methods might be combined to explore priorities and tensions, while surfacing common ground \n•\tApproaches that could be used to facilitate effective engagement of young people  (following any tender process the council can provide links to schools and youth centres, as well as wider community members to the successful supplier). \n•\tApproaches that could be used to engage hard-to-reach groups (following any tender process the council can facilitate links through Services and partners with the successful supplier)\n•\tApproaches that ensure bilingual delivery (Welsh and English) and embed accessibility in the engagement process \n•\tApproaches that could be used to assess number and quality of interactions, in particular from those who have not previously engaged with Council’s survey and engagement work.\nFurther considerations for EOIs:\n• To create a deeply-held future vision, we believe it will be important to draw on the past so would like to understand how local culture and history could be considered in the engagement process.\n• Young people and hard-to-reach groups are experiencing significant day-to-day challenges which may limit their ability to engage with a long-term visioning process – we would want to understand how this and related challenges could be addressed and overcome in the engagement process\n• Outline the types of key questions and/or prompts which may be used in different engagement formats.\n• We would welcome integration of creative methods (e.g., arts-based approaches) in engagement of young people and intergenerational audiences.\n• Previous experience with any digital engagement platforms proposed.\n• We would want to understand the proposed evaluation and learning approach, and how the risk of engagement/consultation fatigue could be managed.\nWe will be holding an online information session for potential suppliers on June 9th 3:30 - 4.30pm. Please register for the information session via the link below:\nhttps://forms.office.com/e/06ikKmxX8P\nFollowing the information session we invite potential suppliers to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) by 5pm on July 8th 2026. The EOI should be a maximum of 5 pages and be submitted via email to procurement@denbighshire.gov.uk.\nFollowing close of this process and prior to any procurement, we may also invite suppliers to provide digital system demonstrations over MS Teams to obtain further information.\nWe do not guarantee that this exercise will result in a procurement exercise.\n•             The recording of the webinar is now available https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bKyZvtebQLiMTBw7Zkp1yi55FitBzsvm/view?usp=sharing. The Q & A session of this webinar starts at 29:05\n•             For those wishing to contact Janine Downing at DVSC please do so by email janine@dvsc.co.uk\n•             As a reminder, Expressions of Interests should be submitted via email by 5pm on July 8th 2026 to procurement@denbighshire.gov.uk\nIf you have any questions regarding the Webinar or the Pre-Market Engagement phase of this process, please email procurement@denbighshire.gov.uk by no later than close of business on the 24th June.

For any procurements undertaken, this PME process will help us as we consider our options. These options may include but are not limited to:-\n•\tprocuring one work package but not the other\n•\tcombining the two work packages into one procurement\n•\tprocuring work packages separately and on this basis we would be seeking suppliers who can demonstrate that they are able to work in close partnership with both the Council and another supplier\nOur Corporate Plan sets out what we want to achieve for the people and communities of Denbighshire over the next 5 years.  This Plan meets both our aspirations and obligations under the Well-being of Future Generations Act and the Equality Act and captures our key performance functions for the purposes of The Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021. A key element in the development of the plan is community engagement so that residents and other stakeholders feel confident the plan reflects their priorities. \nThe Council aims to develop and communicate a long-term vision for Denbighshire (looking ahead to 2050 and beyond) that reflects the aspirations and realities of its communities. The process must build trust across diverse community groups and strengthen democratic engagement, particularly reaching those who are underrepresented or have lost confidence in public institutions.\nWe are interested in hearing from organisations who can support us with this as further detailed below (Please note that the dates are provisional and subject to change):-\n•\tJanuary 27 to March 27 - Community engagement with residents and other stakeholders (must be completed by pre-election period c. end of March 2027)\n•\tSeptember 27 to November 2027 – Denbighshire County Council Member, staff and partner engagement, on the Corporate Plan Wellbeing Objectives + 5 Year Programme of Activities\nExpected Outputs and Outcomes \nOutputs\n•\tAn evidence-based long-term vision for Denbighshire [essential] – the presentation of which doesn’t have to be word based.\n•\tAn evidence-based corporate plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities and contribution to regional work [essential]\n•\tAn evidence-based strategic equalities plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities [essential]\n•\tA number of digital or other products which can be used for future engagement with community groups, young people in particular [essential]\n•\tTraining and supported experience for up to 10 council officers in facilitation of community discussions where topics are potentially contentious [desirable].\nOutcomes\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about future challenges and opportunities related to demographics, local government finances, climate and nature.\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about the council’s role and capacity in delivering local services.\n•\tUnderstanding by Council Members, partner organisations and Council employees of their role in delivering the new corporate plan \n•\tIncreased trust and confidence in the council, particularly among those groups with protected characteristics or/and have never engaged with the Council before.\nHigher levels of democratic engagement among residents, particularly young people and hard-to-reach groups.\nIncreased confidence among trained council officers in community facilitation [desirable].\nIndicative budget of £50k - £60k including VAT",

We would welcome EOI’s which cover the following: \n•\tApproaches that could be used to  facilitate discussions within at least 6 urban communities and engagement with residents of rural areas. \n•\tHow digital and in-person methods might be combined to explore priorities and tensions, while surfacing common ground \n•\tApproaches that could be used to facilitate effective engagement of young people  (following any tender process the council can provide links to schools and youth centres, as well as wider community members to the successful supplier). \n•\tApproaches that could be used to engage hard-to-reach groups (following any tender process the council can facilitate links through Services and partners with the successful supplier)\n•\tApproaches that ensure bilingual delivery (Welsh and English) and embed accessibility in the engagement process \n•\tApproaches that could be used to assess number and quality of interactions, in particular from those who have not previously engaged with Council’s survey and engagement work.\nFurther considerations for EOIs:\n• To create a deeply-held future vision, we believe it will be important to draw on the past so would like to understand how local culture and history could be considered in the engagement process.\n• Young people and hard-to-reach groups are experiencing significant day-to-day challenges which may limit their ability to engage with a long-term visioning process – we would want to understand how this and related challenges could be addressed and overcome in the engagement process\n• Outline the types of key questions and/or prompts which may be used in different engagement formats.\n• We would welcome integration of creative methods (e.g., arts-based approaches) in engagement of young people and intergenerational audiences.\n• Previous experience with any digital engagement platforms proposed.\n• We would want to understand the proposed evaluation and learning approach, and how the risk of engagement/consultation fatigue could be managed.\nWe will be holding an online information session for potential suppliers on June 9th 3:30 - 4.30pm. Please register for the information session via the link below:\nhttps://forms.office.com/e/06ikKmxX8P\nFollowing the information session we invite potential suppliers to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) by 5pm on July 8th 2026. The EOI should be a maximum of 5 pages and be submitted via email to procurement@denbighshire.gov.uk.\nFollowing close of this process and prior to any procurement, we may also invite suppliers to provide digital system demonstrations over MS Teams to obtain further information.\nWe do not guarantee that this exercise will result in a procurement exercise.\n•             The recording of the webinar is now available https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bKyZvtebQLiMTBw7Zkp1yi55FitBzsvm/view?usp=sharing.

For any procurements undertaken, this PME process will help us as we consider our options. These options may include but are not limited to:-\n•\tprocuring one work package but not the other\n•\tcombining the two work packages into one procurement\n•\tprocuring work packages separately and on this basis we would be seeking suppliers who can demonstrate that they are able to work in close partnership with both the Council and another supplier\nOur Corporate Plan sets out what we want to achieve for the people and communities of Denbighshire over the next 5 years.  This Plan meets both our aspirations and obligations under the Well-being of Future Generations Act and the Equality Act and captures our key performance functions for the purposes of The Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021. A key element in the development of the plan is community engagement so that residents and other stakeholders feel confident the plan reflects their priorities. \nThe Council aims to develop and communicate a long-term vision for Denbighshire (looking ahead to 2050 and beyond) that reflects the aspirations and realities of its communities. The process must build trust across diverse community groups and strengthen democratic engagement, particularly reaching those who are underrepresented or have lost confidence in public institutions.\nWe are interested in hearing from organisations who can support us with this as further detailed below (Please note that the dates are provisional and subject to change):-\n•\tJanuary 27 to March 27 - Community engagement with residents and other stakeholders (must be completed by pre-election period c. end of March 2027)\n•\tSeptember 27 to November 2027 – Denbighshire County Council Member, staff and partner engagement, on the Corporate Plan Wellbeing Objectives + 5 Year Programme of Activities\nExpected Outputs and Outcomes \nOutputs\n•\tAn evidence-based long-term vision for Denbighshire [essential] – the presentation of which doesn’t have to be word based.\n•\tAn evidence-based corporate plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities and contribution to regional work [essential]\n•\tAn evidence-based strategic equalities plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities [essential]\n•\tA number of digital or other products which can be used for future engagement with community groups, young people in particular [essential]\n•\tTraining and supported experience for up to 10 council officers in facilitation of community discussions where topics are potentially contentious [desirable].\nOutcomes\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about future challenges and opportunities related to demographics, local government finances, climate and nature.\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about the council’s role and capacity in delivering local services.\n•\tUnderstanding by Council Members, partner organisations and Council employees of their role in delivering the new corporate plan \n•\tIncreased trust and confidence in the council, particularly among those groups with protected characteristics or/and have never engaged with the Council before.\nHigher levels of democratic engagement among residents, particularly young people and hard-to-reach groups.\nIncreased confidence among trained council officers in community facilitation [desirable].\nIndicative budget of £50k - £60k including VAT",

We would welcome EOI’s which cover the following: \n•\tApproaches that could be used to  facilitate discussions within at least 6 urban communities and engagement with residents of rural areas. \n•\tHow digital and in-person methods might be combined to explore priorities and tensions, while surfacing common ground \n•\tApproaches that could be used to facilitate effective engagement of young people  (following any tender process the council can provide links to schools and youth centres, as well as wider community members to the successful supplier). \n•\tApproaches that could be used to engage hard-to-reach groups (following any tender process the council can facilitate links through Services and partners with the successful supplier)\n•\tApproaches that ensure bilingual delivery (Welsh and English) and embed accessibility in the engagement process \n•\tApproaches that could be used to assess number and quality of interactions, in particular from those who have not previously engaged with Council’s survey and engagement work.\nFurther considerations for EOIs:\n• To create a deeply-held future vision, we believe it will be important to draw on the past so would like to understand how local culture and history could be considered in the engagement process.\n• Young people and hard-to-reach groups are experiencing significant day-to-day challenges which may limit their ability to engage with a long-term visioning process – we would want to understand how this and related challenges could be addressed and overcome in the engagement process\n• Outline the types of key questions and/or prompts which may be used in different engagement formats.\n• We would welcome integration of creative methods (e.g., arts-based approaches) in engagement of young people and intergenerational audiences.\n• Previous experience with any digital engagement platforms proposed.\n• We would want to understand the proposed evaluation and learning approach, and how the risk of engagement/consultation fatigue could be managed.\nWe will be holding an online information session for potential suppliers on June 9th 3:30 - 4.30pm. Please register for the information session via the link below:\nhttps://forms.office.com/e/06ikKmxX8P\nFollowing the information session we invite potential suppliers to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) by 5pm on July 8th 2026. The EOI should be a maximum of 5 pages and be submitted via email to procurement@denbighshire.gov.uk.\nFollowing close of this process and prior to any procurement, we may also invite suppliers to provide digital system demonstrations over MS Teams to obtain further information.\nWe do not guarantee that this exercise will result in a procurement exercise.\n•             The recording of the webinar is now available https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bKyZvtebQLiMTBw7Zkp1yi55FitBzsvm/view?usp=sharing. The Q & A session of this webinar starts at 29:05\n•             For those wishing to contact Janine Downing at DVSC please do so by email janine@dvsc.co.uk\n•             As a reminder, Expressions of Interests should be submitted via email by 5pm on July 8th 2026 to procurement@denbighshire.gov.uk\nThe slides from the Webinar which took place on the 9th June can be accessed here https://drive.google.com/file/d/1holPFii8p3vu7hfHa5lBzkKkobhYKyn9/view?usp=drive_link\nIf you have any questions regarding the Webinar or the Pre-Market Engagement phase of this process, please email procurement@denbighshire.gov.uk by no later than close of business on the 24th June.

For any procurements undertaken, this PME process will help us as we consider our options. These options may include but are not limited to:-\n•\tprocuring one work package but not the other\n•\tcombining the two work packages into one procurement\n•\tprocuring work packages separately and on this basis we would be seeking suppliers who can demonstrate that they are able to work in close partnership with both the Council and another supplier\nOur Corporate Plan sets out what we want to achieve for the people and communities of Denbighshire over the next 5 years.  This Plan meets both our aspirations and obligations under the Well-being of Future Generations Act and the Equality Act and captures our key performance functions for the purposes of The Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021. A key element in the development of the plan is community engagement so that residents and other stakeholders feel confident the plan reflects their priorities. \nThe Council aims to develop and communicate a long-term vision for Denbighshire (looking ahead to 2050 and beyond) that reflects the aspirations and realities of its communities. The process must build trust across diverse community groups and strengthen democratic engagement, particularly reaching those who are underrepresented or have lost confidence in public institutions.\nWe are interested in hearing from organisations who can support us with this as further detailed below (Please note that the dates are provisional and subject to change):-\n•\tJanuary 27 to March 27 - Community engagement with residents and other stakeholders (must be completed by pre-election period c. end of March 2027)\n•\tSeptember 27 to November 2027 – Denbighshire County Council Member, staff and partner engagement, on the Corporate Plan Wellbeing Objectives + 5 Year Programme of Activities\nExpected Outputs and Outcomes \nOutputs\n•\tAn evidence-based long-term vision for Denbighshire [essential] – the presentation of which doesn’t have to be word based.\n•\tAn evidence-based corporate plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities and contribution to regional work [essential]\n•\tAn evidence-based strategic equalities plan that clearly communicates the Council’s priorities [essential]\n•\tA number of digital or other products which can be used for future engagement with community groups, young people in particular [essential]\n•\tTraining and supported experience for up to 10 council officers in facilitation of community discussions where topics are potentially contentious [desirable].\nOutcomes\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about future challenges and opportunities related to demographics, local government finances, climate and nature.\n•\tMore widespread understanding within communities about the council’s role and capacity in delivering local services.\n•\tUnderstanding by Council Members, partner organisations and Council employees of their role in delivering the new corporate plan \n•\tIncreased trust and confidence in the council, particularly among those groups with protected characteristics or/and have never engaged with the Council before.\nHigher levels of democratic engagement among residents, particularly young people and hard-to-reach groups.\nIncreased confidence among trained council officers in community facilitation [desirable].\nIndicative budget of £50k - £60k including VAT",
