Description of the procurement
Dublin City Council wishes to introduce the Community Wealth Building (CWB) concept across all services and operations. Community Wealth Building initiatives were adopted by Dublin City Council at the October 2021 City Council meeting, following on from presentations made to the Finance Strategic Policy Committee at the September meeting. Subsequently a cross departmental CWB Working Group was established to examine and agree measures to incorporate CWB in service delivery and operations. The CWB working group through the participation of interactive workshops developed an Implementation Plan to help envisage the roll out of CWB across all services. The Implementation Plan was presented and adopted at the May 2022 Finance Strategic Policy Committee meeting. Dublin City Council now seek to procure a support service provider to roll out the Implementation Plan , which charts clear and specific actions to be taken to introduce CWB to Dublin City Council operations. The deliverable output will be the successful inclusion of actions identified in the Implementation Plan to Dublin City Council operations. The timeframe of the initial contract (delivery plan) is 18 months, consideration will then be given to forming an external network of anchor institutions to spread the use of CWB throughout Dublin.
