The procurement falls within the business and management consultancy services category and is based in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method is an open procedure, with the tender period having ended on 23rd November 2016. The contract, valued at £65,000, commenced on 12th December 2016 and is expected to conclude on 1st May 2017. The primary objective is to maximise the economic benefits associated with HS2 for the Leeds City Region, focusing on skills and supply chain impacts. This tender represents a valuable opportunity for consultancy firms, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in economic development, workforce planning, and public sector projects. Companies that can provide a robust funding and financing plan or that have experience in public land assembly strategies would be well-suited to bid. Engaging with this project could not only enhance the visibility of these firms but also contribute to long-term partnerships within the public sector, ultimately fostering growth in their business objectives. ## Notice Government requires growth strategies to be produced to maximise the economic benefits of HS2 in cities and city regions where stations will be situated. This invitation to tender is for expert support to evidence the skills and supply chain impacts available to the city region as result of HS2, and to articulate the actions that are needed to ensure that employment, skills and education and supply chain opportunities associated with HS2 for Leeds City Region residents and businesses are maximised. This is one of a number of invitations to tender for the HS2 Growth Strategy issued concurrently by WYCA . The services relate to provide a comprehensive, robust and deliverable funding and financing plan for the Growth Strategy that can be included within the City Region's Growth Strategy, alongside a public sector land assembly strategy to drive value capture, economic growth and, where relevant, relocation of key businesses within the city .
