## Summary

Nottingham City Council is currently engaged in a procurement process under the title "CPU 3285 Public Engagement on the Structure of Local Government". This tender is classified under the category of "Research and development services and related consultancy services". The procurement stage is in the Tender phase, with a submission deadline set for 9 November 2018. The project is based in Nottingham, East Midlands, and aims to gather evidence regarding potential reorganisation proposals for local government, with fieldwork required to be completed by 21 December 2018 and subsequent reporting in January 2019.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in consultancy services, particularly those with expertise in local government research and evaluation. It is well-suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of demonstrating experience in conducting consultations and providing insightful analysis on organisational restructuring. Companies with a strong background in public engagement and research methodologies should consider submitting a proposal to leverage this opportunity for growth and collaboration with local authorities.

## Notice

Nottingham City Council is seeking tenders for a specialist consultancy service that would provide an evidence base to understand what the city geography should be if Nottinghamshire County Council makes a case for reorganisation. The consultation should be undertaken by an organisation that has specialist knowledge of carrying out previous research on unitary reorganisation and who understand the challenges involved in this. The fieldwork needs to be completed by 21 December 2018 with reporting in January 2019. This will allow the Council to consider the findings and make a decision as to whether there is enough evidence to support further consultation to work up proposals in response to Nottinghamshire County Council.
