A global service provider with established strengths in health, wellbeing, and social outcomes sought to diversify into the UK employability sector. They engaged 50 Degrees to design a tailored market entry strategy. The objective was clear: analyse commissioner priorities, map opportunities, and create a credible roadmap to position the organisation for success in the £20bn+ UK employment and skills market.

50 Degrees has supported more than ten Connect to Work opportunities across a range of providers, delivering commercial and financial modelling to inform bid strategy. Alongside bidder support, we have also advised commissioners on market design. Where we supported commissioners, we excluded ourselves from bidding work to maintain independence and draw on sight from both sides of the market.

A specialist global workplace and property management organisation sought to secure a significant contract to manage a sensitive, secure blue light estate. The procurement required demonstrating deep technical capability across complex asset and facilities management, within an environment defined by strict operational constraints and security requirements. Our client engaged us to provide bid writing and strategic support, ensuring the submission clearly articulated their expertise while navigating the unique complexities of a secure site context.
