The procurement is currently in the Tender stage, with a deadline for submission set for 2nd November 2020. The contract, valued at £50,000 and opening with a minimum value of £25,000, is primarily located in London, UK, and is classified under the CPV code for Research services. The selected contractor will be expected to deliver outputs that assist councils in effective planning and economic recovery initiatives, addressing the significant challenges brought about by the pandemic. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with a proven track record of collaborating with local councils on economic recovery projects. Companies specialising in research services that can provide innovative solutions and insights into local economic resilience will find this prospect particularly suited to their capabilities. Engaging in this contract could enhance their visibility and reputation within the public sector, thereby fostering business growth and generating subsequent contracts in related areas. ## Notice LGA wishes to commission a package of good practice support and learning for local authorities on local economic recovery. Councils have a strong interest and significant role to play in helping their local economies to recover. The impact of the COVID 19 pandemic and associated restrictions on society and local economies is expected to be severe and has yet to be fully felt. With winter approaching and the prospect of further restrictions on public gatherings and hospitality businesses at a local level, this will be a challenging time for councils in managing their immediate priorities together with undertaking some forward planning and thinking for supporting local economic recovery. The outputs from this work should help in reducing the need for councils to undertake their own research and help ensure that their plans learn from the experiences of others. Suppliers with a strong track record of working with councils on such issues are invited to bid. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3e5e76e3-a248-4fdd-807a-d6bdff0fad04 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Oct 2020 | | Submission deadline | 2 Nov 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 5 Nov 2020 - 28 Feb 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £50,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LOCAL GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1P 3HZ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73110000 - Research services ## Release History - 12 Oct 2020 at 15:05 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3e5e76e3-a248-4fdd-807a-d6bdff0fad04 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3e5e76e3-a248-4fdd-807a-d6bdff0fad04 12th October 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-GB-London:-Learning-from-local-economic-recovery/Z658A89Z46 Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
