Summary of the contracting process

The West of England Combined Authority, in collaboration with South Gloucestershire Council, has awarded a contract to LDA Design for a feasibility study titled "Opportunity for Growth in the West Innovation Arc." This procurement process, classified under "Feasibility study" in the CPV scheme (code 79314000), aims to explore significant housing and community development opportunities in the West Innovation Arc, including the potential for a new City District. The procurement process, which used an open procedure below the threshold, concluded the tender stage with submissions ending on 8th November 2024. The contract is scheduled to run from 18th November 2024 to 14th March 2025, and it is valued at GBP 60,467.4.

This tender creates substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for SMEs, given the feasibility study's scale and the potential for long-term transformational projects in the region. Companies with expertise in urban development, community planning, and feasibility analysis would be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. SMEs can particularly benefit from participating in such open procedures, which allow for broader competition and opportunities to contribute to significant regional development projects.

Notice Title

Feasibility Study - Opportunity for Growth in the West Innovation Arc

Notice Description

Together, the West of England Mayoral Combined Authority and South Gloucestershire Council wish to explore the opportunity to catalyse further transformational change in the West Innovation Arc. This includes unlocking a step change in housing delivery above the 6,500 homes currently planned for at the Brabazon development and harnessing opportunities to deliver growth across the wider Arc. At this increased scale, the development site and environs would take on the role and function of a new City District. We want to investigate whether this is realistic and deliverable in a way that ensures existing communities can benefit from this new role and function.
