## Summary

The public procurement process led by Cobalt Housing e-Tendering aims to select a consultancy service provider to conduct an opportunities and constraints study for the development of residential units in the neighbourhoods of Fazakerley, Croxteth, and Norris Green. The budget for this study is £150,000, with a tender deadline of December 25, 2022, and a contract period starting from January 16, 2023, to January 15, 2024. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the main procurement category is services.

This tender provides an opportunity for consultancy service providers in the research sector to engage in the development of residential units in the stated neighbourhoods. Businesses with expertise in research consultancy services and experience in urban planning and development would be well-suited to compete in this procurement process. The tender's focus on addressing community issues and enhancing local offerings aligns with businesses looking to contribute to sustainable urban development projects in the North West region of the United Kingdom.

## Notice

The purpose of this tender process is to select a consultancy service provider to undertake an opportunities and constraints study, to support future master planning activities, investment decisions and the longer-term vision for our three key neighbourhoods, Fazakerley, Croxteth and Norris Green. The study will explore the land, property and community assets, identifying any key issues with the existing local offer. Cobalt's development programme aims to deliver 1,250 residential units (including 300 specialist units) The majority of the sites are currently in Cobalt's ownership. The sites are a mix of brownfield, previously developed land, and open/green spaces. All the sites identified are in our three neighbourhoods of Croxteth, Fazakerley and Norris Green. The rationale for developing open/green spaces is the ability to upgrade many of the unused spaces in our portfolio, due the revenue generated through development. Many of our development sites suffer from fly tipping and ASB, which would be addressed through re-development or upgrading (because of revenue generated from development). The budget is expected to be PS150,000. Additional information: Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No
