The Balance Partnership's association with the Schools commenced with an in-depth evaluation of our contractor's purchasing efficiency.
Following this, we asked Balance Partnership to put our services out to competitive tender, which included the successful preparation of detailed tender documents, contractor screening, site visit Management, contractor shortlisting, contractors' presentation format with the schools' governors and finally contractor selection. The latter also included writing the new contract and provision of a hand-holding facility during our successful change of contractor.
Once we agreed our terms of reference with the Balance Partnership, I found them to be responsive, proactive and totally professional with regards to meeting all the Schools' related objectives. They also assist the School with the ongoing monitoring of the contractor's financial and operational performance when required.Ian McGregor, Bursar
