Over the last years, the ECB's responsibilities have grown substantially with the challenges it has faced, and so has its organisation. In September 2014, the ECB launched a major review of its internal workings with a focus on enhancing overall organisational performance. The purpose of the project is to review the internal structure and processes to ultimately ensure that the ECB continues to fulfil its mandate in the most efficient way.
In the context of the project, a series of high-level actions have been identified as key areas for performance improvement and their implementation is steered via 8 work streams and 1 coordination office.
The ECB was seeking external service providers in order to support the implementation of action plans designed under the project and, beyond the project, help the ECB meet its organisational challenges of the coming years.
The purpose of this tender was to first qualify up to 6 capable potential providers, invite them to submit proposals, and eventually award up to 6 framework agreements with a duration of 2 years and the possibility of extensions up to a total duration of 4 years.
The services and works will be called up on the basis of mini-competitions amongst the selected providers.
