Summary of the contracting process

Newry, Mourne and Down District Council is seeking a consultant to develop an Investment Land Guide for the Dublin Belfast Economic Corridor Partnership. The guide is intended to strengthen the corridor’s proposition to investors by setting out its investment land offer. The work is business development, analysis and research consultancy. The listed delivery location is Newry, with the requirement also applying to the United Kingdom and wider locations. This is a consultancy assignment rather than a purchase of goods or construction works. It is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and may be relevant to firms with experience in investment promotion, economic development, land and property analysis, or producing evidence-based guides for prospective investors.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The tender submission deadline was 30 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The planned contract period runs from 30 November 2026 to 31 March 2027. The estimated value is £25,000. The procurement is for a single guide, with no lot structure described. The requirement specifies appointment of a suitably qualified and experienced consultant, but provides no further detail on eligibility tests or how bids will be evaluated. The contracting process reached the tender stage, when the buyer invited offers. The listed category is services; the work combines business development consultancy with business analysis and research consultancy. The assignment’s purpose is to improve the Dublin Belfast Economic Corridor’s investment proposition through a dedicated guide to investment land.

This opportunity suits a consultancy able to research and analyse investment land and turn findings into a clear, credible guide for investors. Relevant strengths include understanding land and property availability, economic development, business location decisions and the factors that shape an area’s investment offer. Experience producing investment-facing research or place-based economic development material would support a competitive response. The buyer calls for a suitably qualified and experienced consultant, so firms should be able to demonstrate appropriate expertise and a track record delivering comparable consultancy work. The assignment is suitable for SMEs, making it relevant to smaller specialist practices as well as larger consultancies with the right capability. No particular accreditation, team size or named technical system is set out in the requirement.
