This initiative falls under the category of research and development consultancy services and is part of the 'Award' stage, following an open procurement method. The contract, valued at £20,000, commenced on 12th July 2021 and will conclude by 12th October 2021. The procurement process concluded on 15th April 2021, highlighting a pressing need to innovate Liverpool's market offers in response to changing shopping habits and the impact of Covid-19, specifically within the North West region of the United Kingdom. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in consultancy services, particularly those with experience in market research and development. Companies that can develop innovative market models and engage in public consultations will find this project particularly well-suited for their expertise. The focus on revitalising urban marketplaces invites small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and creative consultants eager to contribute to Liverpool's rich market heritage while addressing contemporary retail challenges. ## Notice Liverpool markets have a glorious history and as such have acquired a folklore in the City that harks back to a golden and different age. Over the last twenty years shopping habits have changed, and this coupled with the devastating impact of Covid on retail and its potential long-term ramifications, means it is timely to look at a new model and future for our markets. Liverpool's current market offer is eclectic, from farmers markets to Great Homer Street (Greatie), from occasional event style destination markets to St Johns. The offer needs consolidating to create a compelling and practical vision that is worthy of a Global City and is more than the sum of its parts. Post Covid there is the opportunity to be brave, considered and ambitious to support a brilliant market offer in the city, that plays to the heritage but is absolutely about the future. We are looking for an experienced creative and forward-looking consultant who can assess our current offer across all markets, which consists of:- * St. Johns Market * Garston * Great Homer Street * Liverpool Food Hub * Monument Place * Tuebrook Car Boot and Retail Market * Specialist Markets Events * Research similar international models, the learning of which can be brought to bear on our ambition * Create a new ambitious model for markets with clear achievable recommendations for individual sites and genres * Develop a workable, practical and achievable plan for sites that may no longer be viable that fits the overall model * Develop a costed action plan to support investment decisions * Develop a public consultation to ensure we hear directly from our citizens and their ideas and aspirations are taken into account * Support a citizens panel who will guide the process made up of stakeholders and experts * Ensure the model and approach fits with our inclusive City Plan ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/cc5c9f31-7344-4134-babe-bda906cb2032 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 21 Oct 2021 | | Submission deadline | 15 Apr 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 21 Jun 2021 | | Contract period | 11 Jul 2021 - 12 Oct 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £20,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £53,700 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LIVERPOOL CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | LIVERPOOL | | Post town | Liverpool | | Postcode | L3 1DS | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD7 Merseyside | | ITL 3 | TLD72 Liverpool | | Local authority | Liverpool | | Electoral ward | Waterfront South | | Westminster constituency | Liverpool Riverside | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | SAVILLS (UK | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73200000 - Research and development consultancy services ## Release History - 21 Oct 2021 at 14:50 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/cc5c9f31-7344-4134-babe-bda906cb2032 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/cc5c9f31-7344-4134-babe-bda906cb2032 21st October 2021 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=cd328c3c-3c91-eb11-810c-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - http://www.liverpool.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
