The tender was published on 12 February 2020 and the submission period ended on 11 March 2020. The awarded contract, valued at £44,950, commenced on 11 May 2020 and is set to run until 10 May 2024. The procurement category falls under urban planning services, with the work expected to inform wider development planning efforts, including a related Green Belt Review.

Notice Information

Notice Title

South Cambridgeshire District Council - Greater Cambridge Landscape Assessment

Notice Description

Cambridge City Council (CCC) and South Cambridgeshire District Council (SCDC) are seeking consultants to provide a Landscape Character Assessment for the Greater Cambridge area (defined as the combined area of Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire Districts). Detailed proposals are now invited from consultants. This work will form part of the Councils' development plan making process in relation to Landscape Character Assessment and associated landscape sensitivities. It will also identify potential landscape enhancement and management opportunities that could be delivered outside of the planning system. The contractor must demonstrate in writing that they have no conflicts of interest in respect of work being sought that cannot be effectively mitigated. It should be noted that as well as inviting tenders for a Landscape Character Assessment, the Councils are also procuring a Green Belt Review. It is anticipated that the Landscape Character Assessment for the Greater Cambridge area will, in part, inform the Green Belt Review work (see paragraph 33a). Bidders are asked to consider and explain how the two studies might best be carried out in tandem and identify any benefits of their being undertaken by the same consultant.
