Delivery consultancy, with commercial at the core
We help organisations plan, buy and deliver, help suppliers win the work, and make contracts deliver once they are signed. For companies, public bodies, charities and the larger consultancies that bring us in.
The named lead does the work, a second senior practitioner reviews it and a senior ACS lead signs it off.
A named senior lead on every engagement, with access to over 45 hand-picked senior specialists, brought in only when the work needs them. Indicative cost range first, fixed once scoped.
Public buyers: RM6237, Constellia or Bloom. Everyone else: contract with us directly. How to buy
We fix all four. Outcomes before headcount.
Our senior leads have run procurements as buyers and bids as suppliers. Each side gets advice that already anticipates how the other will read it.
Companies, public bodies and charities that need the right supplier, on the right terms, and a contract that delivers what they paid for.
Suppliers that need to win the work, at a margin they can live with, and keep the contract once it is theirs.
We never act for a buyer and a supplier on the same competition or contract, and we check for conflicts before we accept any work.
Commercial and delivery, under one accountable lead. When the work needs more, your lead brings in specialists from the ACS family.
Access to over 45 hand-picked senior specialists, brought in only when the work needs them.
From one senior lead to a fractional, multidisciplinary team of 20 to 30, scaled as the work changes. We also deliver as a partner to larger consultancies, under their brand where asked.

ACS reviewed their commercial landscape: the markets they sell into, the buyers in those markets, their competitors and their existing contracts. From that review, we helped them create a future pipeline.
A future pipeline of opportunities, built on a reviewed commercial landscape.
We wrote the policy, procedures, approval routes and standard tender and contract documents, ran competitions and trained staff.
Templates and approval routes the team kept using after we left.
We reviewed the contracts and evidence, prioritised remediation, held suppliers to compliance, centralised records and trained staff.
A clearer, auditable contract management system for statutory compliance.
