Raising YPO's profile with political stakeholders

Grayling support YPO’s leadership team with comprehensive monitoring, real-time analysis and thorough briefings to give them a holistic view of the policy landscape and to identify opportunities with stakeholders in Westminster and in local authorities. Through Grayling’s proactive targeted contract programme, YPO has been able to meet with parliamentarians and leaders in local government raising the profile of their products, services and social value.

1st time they’ve ever submitted suggestions to the Government’s budget

Launching the UK’s first Sub-National Transport Body

Within the first week of our appointment, Grayling hosted a series of messaging workshops with TfN’s senior team. This enabled us to crystalise TfN’s distinct voice in the often over crowded infrastructure debate. Our tier one engagement programme, with a live tier one stakeholder list, enabled TfN to build cross-party relationships with advisors, officials and ministers at No.10, DfT, HM Treasury, as well as the mayoral teams and other leading local government representatives. In Parliament, we quickly and effectively raised widespread awareness of TfN through parliamentary newsletters, group meetings and regional drop-in sessions. We also delivered ad hoc training sessions for TfN and Northern Powerhouse Rail’s (NPR) senior team ahead of appearances before the Transport Select Committee and the media appearances, notably the Today programme.
