The tender deadline is 29 January 2024, and the contract period is set to start on 1 February 2024 and end on 30 April 2024. The buying organisation is Natural England, located at Foss House, Kings Pool, 1-2 Peasholme Green, York, United Kingdom. This opportunity presents a chance for businesses in the services sector, particularly those experienced in stakeholder mapping, interrelationships review, and decision-making structures analysis.

Businesses interested in innovative processes and cross-estuary land-use management decisions would find this tender conducive for growth and collaboration with Natural England, offering a chance to contribute to the Humber Estuary's nature conservation objectives. ## Notice Natural England are seeking a contractor that will undertake stakeholder mapping, review existing stakeholder interrelationships and decision-making structures, and explore development and nature conservation objectives within the Humber Estuary.

This first stage, Phase one, is expected to inform future planned work which will utilise deliberative and innovative processes to allow stakeholders to interact, share evidence, and explore suitable governance structures that would engender cross-estuary land-use management decisions long-term.
