## Summary

The South Cambridgeshire District Council has recently completed a public procurement process for a Landscape Character and Visual Impact Appraisal for the Cambridge Northern Fringe. This initiative, classified under the 'Planning systems' category, sought consultancy services to assess the landscape character and visual impact of existing conditions and proposed development options. The tender period closed on 28 September 2018, and the contract was awarded on 26 October 2018, with the project scheduled to commence on 12 October 2018 and run until 31 March 2019. The procurement followed an open procedure and was conducted under the jurisdiction of the East of England region in the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the environmental consultancy and landscape architecture sectors, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in landscape appraisal and urban planning. Competitors may include firms that specialise in environmental assessments and those familiar with the local area's geographic and cultural context, who can effectively provide the necessary insights to inform the development of the Area Action Plan (AAP).

## Notice

The purpose of the study will be a rapid landscape character and visual impact appraisal of existing and then three development options to form part of the evidence base for an Area Action Plan (AAP). Prior to going forward with the AAP, we wish to establish how much or how little impact development will have on this flat 'fen edge' area.
