The procurement category falls under services, specifically in the research and development sector, with a contract value of £140,000. The procurement method utilised was an open procedure, allowing broad participation. The tender was published on 17 December 2019, and the bidding period concluded on 28 January 2020. The contract was set to run from 14 February 2020 until 1 September 2020, focusing on delivering a strategic approach for the town's future development. This tender presents substantial opportunities for consultancy firms specialising in urban planning, economic development, and management consultancy services. With a clear emphasis on assessing socio-economic factors and outlining strategic interventions, businesses with expertise in providing evidence-based planning and investment strategies would be well-suited to participate. Furthermore, the invitation for submissions from small and medium enterprises (SMEs) underscores the Council's commitment to fostering local business engagement in significant community projects. ## Notice The Council is clear that it is seeking a coherent, cohesive, and over-arching Strategy and Investment Plan for the long-term future of the Town (town centre and wider catchment). The strategy needs to be evidenced based and clearly articulate a long-term vision, specific objectives (having regard to the Towns Fund prospectus) and costed interventions (short, medium and long-term). Much of the ground-work is already in place - the Council has access to a range of relevant evidence and, along with partners, has a clear sense of direction and a number of key interventions are already in place or in preparation. It is critical that the appointed Consultancy Service interrogate the challenges and opportunities for Newark today, identifying a clear narrative and vision which captures the socio, economic and environmental future (including sites, proposals, and programmes as required). The Strategy and Investment Plan will inform future policy, planning, and investment decisions. It is expected that the Strategy and Investment Plan will offer the market and stakeholders confidence on uses, intent, investment, and relocation/repurposing decisions. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/042d1e95-da86-4f4b-b525-335f1eb4c346 | | 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 | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 4 Mar 2020 | | Submission deadline | 28 Jan 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 2 Mar 2020 | | Contract period | 6 Mar 2020 - 1 Sep 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £100,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £140,000 | | 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 | NEWARK & SHERWOOD DISTRICT COUNCIL | | Locality | NEWARK | | Post town | Nottingham | | Postcode | NG24 1BY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF1 Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire | | ITL 3 | TLF15 North Nottinghamshire | | Local authority | Newark and Sherwood | | Electoral ward | Castle | | Westminster constituency | Newark | | Delivery location | TLF East Midlands (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | BENOY | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 79411000 - General management consultancy services - 79412000 - Financial management consultancy services - 90712100 - Urban environmental development planning - 98000000 - Other community, social and personal services ## Release History - 4 Mar 2020 at 09:19 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/042d1e95-da86-4f4b-b525-335f1eb4c346 - 17 Dec 2019 at 12:14 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ebf0148f-87ce-4da7-a1a9-86b257d5da23 - 17 Dec 2019 at 11:55 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4b8558ec-3388-40cc-be1a-f213003bbf21 - 17 Dec 2019 at 10:19 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3e237235-4aa0-4fe9-84b1-e6293435f9fd ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/042d1e95-da86-4f4b-b525-335f1eb4c346 4th March 2020 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ebf0148f-87ce-4da7-a1a9-86b257d5da23 17th December 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4b8558ec-3388-40cc-be1a-f213003bbf21 17th December 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3e237235-4aa0-4fe9-84b1-e6293435f9fd 17th December 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.eastmidstenders.org Tender documentation can be accessed by expressing an interest in the project via the website below, select Newark and Sherwood as the buying organisation within the opportunities.
