We worked with Broadspectrum on their successful joint bid (with MTC) to run Parklea prison in New South Wales. Our role was to design effective resettlement and rehabilitation services for the prison, in particular induction and case planning activities, programmes to address life skills and offending behaviour.

In addition to the core prison activities the New South Wales Government requested options to deliver a payment by results post release programme. Our extensive experience of the Transforming Rehabilitation programme enabled us to develop an effective proposal drawing upon Broadspectrum’s existing footprint in NSW to provide specialist interventions for indigenous offenders. We went on to support Broadspectrum in the effective mobilisation of their service, providing on-the-ground expertise to turn design into reality.

We’ve worked with Adaptus writers for several years now. Not only have we received good quality service, we have a great relationship with Emma and the team who always add value to bid writing. Emma and the Adaptus writers have supported us on 5 complex Prison bids and will continue to support us going forward

We worked with Interserve to mobilise the prison resettlement elements of their successful Transforming Rehabilitation bids. This included building the supply chain for delivery of services across all five of Interserve’s Community
Rehabilitation Companies, from designing the specification through to engaging supply chain partners, designing key performance metrics and managing the mobilisation of the services. We have also provided business development support to two Interserve-owned Community Rehabilitation Companies and provided other expert advice to Interserve and their CRCs.

Correct Care, an Australian prison healthcare expert and their parent US company, Wellpath, asked us to support them with establishing a UK presence. We worked with them to form CCUK, establish a full business development team, develop their senior management structure, establish new strategic partners, develop relationships with commissioners, build their business development strategy and bid for new contracts. We have continued to support CCUK, even helping them to develop new relationships back in Australia.

We have worked with Sodexo Justice Service over the last two years, providing a range of support across multiple bids. We provided solution development and bid writing support for their Prison Education Framework bid; solution support and bid writing for their successful bid for the Ministry of Justice’s Prison Operators Framework; bid writing and “critical friend” reviews for their Probation Delivery partner bid; and were an integral part of their bid to run HMP Wellingborough, helping to shape their solution, participating in dialogue with Ministry of Justice and bid writing and review. Across all of these engagements, we worked as an integral part of Sodexo’s team, bringing fresh insight, independent challenge and expert bid management resources.
