P34B Achieves Bloom Accreditation

At P34B, we are committed to helping organisations improve project performance, strengthen leadership capability and build lasting resilience. We are therefore delighted to announce that P34B is now a Bloom Accredited Supplier, providing public sector organisations with a compliant and efficient route to access our independent project review, assurance and capability development services.

Bloom delivers the NEPRO³ professional services solution on behalf of the North East Procurement Organisation (NEPO), providing a fully compliant marketplace through which public sector organisations can procure professional services. Bloom supports procurement, contract management and payment processes and has facilitated over £1.5 billion of public sector projects across the UK.

 

A Simpler Route to Specialist Support

Public sector organisations face increasing pressure to deliver more with less. Complex programmes, constrained resources and heightened governance requirements mean access to trusted and proven professional support has never been more important.

Through Bloom, organisations can now engage P34B through an established procurement route that prioritises compliance, transparency and value for money. This provides confidence that procurement requirements are met while enabling organisations to access independent expertise quickly and efficiently.

 

Supporting Organisations Across the Public Sector

Bloom’s marketplace is used by organisations across:

  • Local Government
  • Central Government
  • NHS and Healthcare
  • Housing Associations
  • Education Providers
  • Police, Fire and Emergency Services
  • Public Bodies and Arm’s Length Organisations

These include organisations such as Lancashire County Council, Chorley Borough Council, the Department for Education, Companies House, Homes England, NHS Business Services Authority, University of Central Lancashire (UCLan), University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust and the London Fire Brigade.

This breadth of adoption demonstrates the confidence that public sector organisations place in the framework when procuring professional services.

 

How P34B Creates Value

P34B exists to help organisations transform project delivery investment into capability, leadership and resilience.

Our independent approach provides practical support that helps organisations make better decisions, reduce delivery risk and build stronger internal capability.

Through Bloom, public sector clients can access:

  1. Independent Reviews and Assurance – Objective assessments of projects, programmes and portfolios that provide insight into delivery performance, governance, leadership and risk.
  2. Project and Programme Assurance – Constructive challenge that helps decision-makers gain confidence, identify issues early and take informed action before problems escalate
  3. Capability Development – Practical support that strengthens organisational project delivery capability and reduces long-term reliance on external support.
  4. Leadership Development – Coaching, mentoring and support for sponsors, senior responsible owners, project professionals and delivery teams.
  5. Professional Development and Knowledge Transfer – Approaches that develop people alongside projects, creating sustainable benefits that continue long after an engagement ends.

 

Why This Matters

Too often, organisations invest significantly in projects without seeing a corresponding increase in internal capability. At P34B, we believe every project should leave something valuable behind.

Our approach is designed to help organisations:

  • Improve confidence in major decisions
  • Reduce delivery risks and performance issues
  • Strengthen governance and assurance arrangements
  • Build internal capability and resilience
  • Develop current and future project leaders
  • Achieve greater long-term value from project investment
  • Rather than creating dependency, we focus on helping organisations become more self-sufficient, confident and capable.

Bloom accreditation provides another layer of confidence for public sector clients.

  • A compliant procurement route
