The 'Golden' Contract

Featured image for post

We've had the pleasure of meeting a lot of other local authorities through various events, visits and social gatherings, and we've always been asked if we would be willing to share a copy of 'the' contract/policy we talk about when working on new.shropshire.gov.uk. Unfortunately, we've always said no. We felt it was never quite polished enough to release to the wider world.

However, after thinking about it,  we realised that we always say how we work in an agile way, and like to share as many ideas as possible with other councils, so why shouldn't this apply in this situation?

So after a lot of thought, we decided to share our contract, but please note it is a 'work in progress (WIP)'. Yes, I did just make that awful joke!

We hope you find it useful, and please free to edit it, add to it, remove bits or throw it in the bin as you see fit. It's completely up to you.

If you do happen to download a copy and use it, it would be great if you could let us know if it helped you, and what improvements/changes you made.
