## Summary

Halton Borough Council is initiating a public procurement process titled "The Liverpool City Region Business Growth Programme: Halton - Environmental Performance, Efficiency and Waste Minimisation." This tender aims to deliver intensive specialist support services for SMEs in Halton, England, to promote their growth under the European Regional Development Funding. The procurement is currently in the award stage, with the contract period set to begin on 1st April 2022 and ending on 30th June 2023. The total contract value is £7,500, and the procurement method is classified as an open procedure. The tender period concluded on 31st January 2022.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses that specialise in environmental training and management services. Companies equipped to provide tailored support that builds capacity and confidence among SMEs will be well-suited to compete for this contract. Since the programme aims to support businesses reluctant to engage with existing providers, firms that can demonstrate their ability to deliver essential business services at no cost will be particularly attractive to the buying organisation. This initiative serves as a valuable resource for contractors looking to engage with the growing sector of environmental consultancy and support for small to medium-sized enterprises.

## Notice

Halton Borough Council's Business Support Team are seeking to recruit suitably experienced and qualified specialist contractors to deliver intensive specialist support services to promote growth amongst SMEs in the borough. The support provided will be delivered under the Business Growth Programme Phase 3 that will extend the current Liverpool City Region Integrated Business Growth Programme Phase 2 Support project through securing further European Regional Development Funding under Priority Axis 3: Enhancing the Competitiveness of SMEs. The aim of the Business Growth Programme is to provide a range of business support services at no cost to the client, designed to build both the capacity and confidence within those SMEs that are reluctant to engage with existing business support providers. This reluctance may be because of lack of awareness, or understanding, or simply because they are reluctant to pay for, or do not perceive the value of, existing commercial provision. The Project will provide additional, more intensive, business support where a participating SME lacks the capacity, expertise or resources to begin the initial roll-out of their individual Action Plan for Growth. Support will be tailored to meet the needs of each individual SME and will focus upon the fundamental elements which businesses must have in place in order to be firstly, sustainable and secondly, to grow. In summary, the provision of a no-cost service by the Business Growth Programme will provide a valuable resource which will act as a pathway and catalyst for businesses in order to enable them to establish the financial and strategic foundations for the future.
