## Summary

The Connected Places Catapult is conducting a tender for the "Land Use Planning Viability Assessment Tool" aimed at enhancing the transparency and efficiency of the land use planning viability assessment process. This procurement falls under the category of urban planning services and is located in London, United Kingdom. The procurement method is an open procedure, with the tender period closing on 1st August 2019. The contract is valued at £140,000 and is scheduled to commence on 12th August 2019 and run until 7th November 2019. The Catapult is collaborating with public agencies, including the Greater London Authority and local boroughs, to address current challenges faced in planning assessments.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), who have expertise in urban planning and digital tools. Businesses that can provide innovative solutions to improve data and transparency in the viability assessment process will be well-positioned to compete effectively in this procurement. Engaging with this project could allow these organisations to expand their market reach and contribute positively to public sector improvements in planning processes.

## Notice

The Catapult is seeking to award a contract to a Supplier to deliver an Alpha project into the land use planning viability assessment process. The Catapult is working with a partnership of public agencies (Greater London Authority, London Borough of Southwark and London Borough of Tower Hamlets) who are seeking to make the viability assessment process in planning more transparent, effective and efficient. The viability assessment process involves property developers providing local authorities with a self-generated assessment of the costs involved in bringing about development (eg. Buying land, providing affordable housing, construction costs, profit etc) and the income from development (selling homes, renting homes etc). In this process there is a significant information asymmetry between developer and local planning authority, a lack of accessibility to members of the public and is a barrier to small developers becoming larger developers. Previous Discovery work has indicated that better use of data and digital tools could assist in addressing some of these challenges, and we wish to progress to an Alpha phase were concepts developed in the Discovery work are developed into working prototypes.
