This Open OJEU procurement falls under the Public Contract Regulations 2015, with a tender submission deadline that has already passed on 31st May 2017. The contract, which is valued at £1.6 million and funded through the England European Regional Development Fund as part of the European Structural and Investment Funds Growth Programme 2014-2020, is designed to enhance inward investment strategies across the region. The contract period is set from 12th June 2017 until 31st December 2018, covering consultancy services for business development. This procurement presents significant opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their outreach in the Liverpool City Region, particularly those focused on business development consultancy services. Companies that specialise in marketing, investment facilitation, or consultancy aimed at boosting local economies and attracting foreign investments would be particularly well-suited to engage in this activity. The emphasis on SME involvement suggests that competition from smaller firms might bring innovative solutions to the regional inward investment strategy. ## Notice This tender opportunity is issued by Liverpool Vision Limited, Invest Liverpool, working on behalf of the wider Liverpool City Region. This is an Open OJEU procurement under the Public Contract Regulations 2015 and a Prior Information Notice was published on 24th January 2017.
