Notice Description
Towns Fund Projects Full Business Case Development Consultancy Located in the West Midlands, Sandwell is a Metropolitan Borough in the Black Country, which is made up of six towns - Oldbury, Rowley Regis, Smethwick, Tipton, Wednesbury and West Bromwich. The borough has excellent access to the national motorway network with five junctions feeding in to the M5 and M6 motorways serving the South West, South East and North West regions of the UK. As Sandwell Council embarks on an exciting period of transformation, inward investment and expansion a superb opportunity to secure funding from Towns Fund in three of our six towns has arisen. The Government invited Rowley Regis, Smethwick and West Bromwich to put forward bids for up to PS25m each of funding to deliver interventions in planning and regeneration, skills and enterprise infrastructure, and connectivity (transport and digital). Rowley Regis, Smethwick and West Bromwich submitted their Town Investment Plans in October 2020 and PS67.5m of investment has been conditionally offered by Government. The projects now need to be developed to Full Business Cases. This opportunity is for a consultancy to work alongside the council and partners to develop the Full Business Cases and Summary Document submissions for 6 of the 17 projects contained within the Town Investment Plans, and support as outlined below. A flexible approach is essential to respond to guidance released by MHCLG and the nature of working in a partnership environment.
