Summary of the contracting process

North Devon District Council is commissioning a Gypsy and Traveller Accommodation Assessment for North Devon and Torridge. The work is a research and consultancy service to assess accommodation needs across both areas. The council is the buyer, and the assessment covers North Devon and Torridge. This is a single service requirement rather than a set of separately described work packages.

The council invited offers through an open competition. The procurement is a single lot, with a contract period from 19 October 2026 to 19 March 2027. The estimated value is £60,000 excluding VAT (£72,000 including VAT). The deadline for enquiries was 19 September 2026 at 12:00 noon; the submission deadline was extended to 12 October 2026 at 12:00 noon. Evaluation is weighted 60% on quality and 40% on price. Bidders must meet the stated insurance requirements and confirm their technical and professional ability.

The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. It will suit research or consultancy providers able to deliver an accommodation assessment covering two local authority areas. Bidders need employer’s compulsory liability insurance of £5 million and public liability insurance of £5 million, and must demonstrate technical and professional ability. These requirements indicate that relevant research capability and appropriate insurance cover are central to competing.
