## Summary

The Daventry District Council is seeking a consultant for the 'Viability Assessment of the Daventry District Part 2 Local Plan', falling under the category of research and development services. The contract, valued at £15,000, follows an open procurement method and is currently at the award stage, with the contract period scheduled from 11 May 2017 to 1 October 2017. The tender was published on 3 April 2017, and the deadline for submissions was 28 April 2017. The project is based in Daventry, England, where the council aims to gather evidence on the viability of the Local Plan to ensure it fits within financial realities.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specializing in consultancy and planning services. Firms that excel in conducting viability assessments, research methodologies, or policy analysis would be particularly well-suited for this project, allowing them to establish a working relationship with a local authority and potentially secure future contracts in the public sector.

## Notice

The National Planning Policy Framework requires local planning authorities to give consideration 'to viability and costs in plan-making and decision-taking'. It is important that the Part 2 Local Plan is deliverable and in doing so be based on up-to-date and robust evidence in order to be sound. Daventry District Council is looking to appoint a consultant to gather robust evidence of viability of the Part 2 Local Plan. The study will involve assessing the policies and site allocations to ensure that after taking account of policy requirements, land values should be sufficient to "provide competitive returns to a willing landowner and willing developer".
