Summary of the contracting process

Castle Point Borough Council (CPBC) has initiated a competitive procurement process to appoint consultants for a visioning study and report on the future of Hadleigh Town Centre in Essex. The study aims to project the town centre's development up to 2040, incorporating key local landmarks such as Hadleigh Castle, the Salvation Army's Hadleigh Rare Breeds Farm, and the Country Park with the London 2012 Olympic cycling track. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, with CPBC having awarded the contract to Brightcorp Ltd trading as The Retail Group. The contract period is set to start on 12th August 2024 and conclude by 14th January 2025. The project is funded with £41,200 from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.

SMEs and VCSEs are particularly encouraged to participate, enhancing their portfolio by contributing to a strategic project that influences future policy and land use decisions. The involvement in such a comprehensive visioning study not only promises short-term financial gain but also positions participating firms as experts in urban development, providing a substantial boost in reputation and potential for further public sector contracts.

Research undertaken should include engagement with residents, businesses, stakeholders and visitors. The project has an allocation of PS41,200 from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund for the work and the appointment will be by way of a competitive process requiring written quotations.
