Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Greater Lincolnshire Combined County Authority commissioned consultancy support to develop an investment strategy and prospectus promoting Greater Lincolnshire to institutional investors. The prospectus is intended to present a value proposition for the area and set out investment opportunities in priority infrastructure, energy and food security, housing, defence and other areas. It is designed to support the authority’s engagement with investors at the UK Real Estate Investment and Infrastructure Forum. The work is investment-focused marketing and strategy consultancy, rather than the delivery of infrastructure or housing projects. The buyer is based in Lincoln, and the prospectus concerns investment opportunities across Greater Lincolnshire.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. The award was made on 9 March 2026, for £122,500. The contract period ran from 9 March to 30 April 2026. The authority used a selective procedure, making a call-off from a framework agreement. The planned prospectus was for presentation at the UK Real Estate Investment and Infrastructure Forum in May. The published process information does not state the evaluation criteria or describe any lots. The work was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, although the selected supplier is a large firm.

This award demonstrates demand from Greater Lincolnshire Combined County Authority for consultancy that can turn regional investment priorities into a clear proposition for institutional investors. A credible competitor would need to combine investment strategy with strong prospectus writing and the ability to present infrastructure, energy, food security, housing and defence opportunities in a coherent, investor-facing narrative. Understanding the area’s value proposition and how to communicate opportunities to different investor types would be relevant. The selected firm’s scale suggests the buyer accepted a large consultancy for this assignment, while the procurement was also marked as suitable for SMEs. This is a specific market-development requirement: experience in investor communications and regional investment promotion is more pertinent than general marketing alone.
