Chairman – ConsortiCo Ltd

The Small Print...

ConsortiCo Ltd is a company limited by guarantee and social enterprise. It is wholly owned by its member organisations, and its Directors are elected from its members.

The Consortico vision is to improve the quality of life of local people, especially those who are disadvantaged or vulnerable, by delivering high quality, cost-effective services.

We have seen over the last few years many of the third sector’s grants replaced with contracts. Our services are now often procured through open and competitive tendering.

The consequence is that many voluntary organisations are not big enough to deal with these bigger contracts or are not equipped to take on the risks involved. This is where a formal consortium has its place.

ConsortiCo provides a vehicle enabling voluntary sector organisation to work together in formal consortia to deliver larger and more complex contracts from both public and private sector.

Chairman Brian Roe explained, "ConsortiCo Ltd is a ‘Super Contractor’. It identifies public service contract opportunities and then develops tender proposals in consortia with its member organisations. Once a contract is secured Consortico will be the lead contractor and deliver financial and contract compliance services on behalf of the whole consortia. Its member organisations will deliver the services under sub contract arrangements that mirror the main contract".
