Summary of the contracting process

Cotswold District Council has undertaken a public procurement process titled "Integrated Impact Assessment," focusing on urban planning services. The procurement falls within the services category and took place in Cirencester, located in the UKK13 region. The procurement stage has reached the contract award phase, with the contract signed on 9th November 2025. Utilising a limited procurement method, the procedure did not involve prior publication of a call for competition. ACEOM Ltd has been awarded the contract valued at £36,600, ensuring the statutory iterative evidence base to support the Local Plan, including assessments for sustainability, economic, social, and health impacts. Although initially procured through the ESPO Consultancy Framework 664_25, the tender lot status is marked as cancelled.

This public procurement offers business growth opportunities for large enterprises specialising in urban planning services. Companies akin to ACEOM Ltd, with expertise in conducting impact assessments and possessing regional presence in Bristol or similar areas, could potentially benefit from future engagements. Despite the limited procurement method in this instance, the focus on comprehensive planning assessments suggests continued demand for services from professionals offering diligent environmental and equalities evaluations, enlightening businesses on the potential profitability and prestige associated with collaborating on governmental projects.
