The document discusses a case study involving an interim manager hired by an NHS organization to help manage the bidding process for a new clinic. The interim manager established an effective bid team and process, providing clear reporting to senior leadership. This allowed the organization to resolve issues and make timely decisions based on accurate information. Ultimately, the bid document was completed on time and approved by the board. The bid was then successful, leading the interim contract to be extended to help present the bid.
