Summary of the contracting process

The Southend-on-Sea Borough Council is seeking proposals for a "Space Utilisation Study" aimed at analysing and optimising the usage of its principal administrative buildings located in Southend on Sea, England. This procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with a submission deadline set for 12 noon on 1st December 2017. Following the tender period, the contract is expected to commence on 11th December 2017 and run until 12th January 2018. The study will involve gathering data on current space usage and exploring potential savings and operational changes.

This opportunity could significantly benefit businesses specialising in consultancy, research, and development services, particularly those with experience in space optimisation and facility management. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the tender is designed to be accessible for such entities. With the study potentially leading to further phases including implementation reviews, there may be subsequent opportunities for successful bidders to contribute to the execution of agreed changes.
