Located in Cardiff, the review emphasises key economic growth strategies within the £1.2 billion CCR City Deal, targeting areas such as transport connectivity and housing. Tagged under the services category, the contract was awarded to Greg Clark Limited without competition, reflecting a direct procurement method for services related to research and development. The award became active on 9th December 2025, with a completion date of 8th July 2026, and the potential for a one-month extension.

Businesses with expertise in transport logistics, regional development, or housing could benefit from the insights derived from this extensive regional review. The fact that the procurement method was direct indicates a preference for familiar networks and past reliable partnerships, suggesting that businesses with an existing rapport with public authorities or expertise in similar projects have a competitive edge.
