## Summary

The Copeland Borough Council is currently conducting a tender for a "Housing Needs Survey" as part of its efforts to assess housing requirements across the borough. The procurement process is at the tender stage, with the deadline for submissions set for 21 October 2019. The total value of the contract is £25,000 and is classified under research consultancy services in the services category. The project is located in the North West region of England, and potential suppliers can register their interest through The Chest Procurement Portal.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in research consultancy services, particularly those experienced in housing assessments and data analysis. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with the capability to conduct comprehensive surveys and provide insightful recommendations would be well-suited to compete for this contract. Engaging in this tender may not only enhance their portfolio but also facilitate long-term relationships with the Copeland Borough Council, potentially leading to further projects in the future.

## Notice

Copeland Borough Council is seeking to appoint a suitable qualified individual or company to conduct a borough wide housing needs assessment. It is anticipated that the main part of this assessment will be via a sample survey (postal) and that the successful tenderer will draw on existing data where necessary to inform the final analysis. The research and analysis from the assessment will inform and support the Council's corporate, planning and housing related strategies. We require robust data regarding current and projected need for all housing tenures and types of housing and information which can be used to inform where new housing should be located in the future. Further details are provided in the Invitation to Tender documents which will be made available upon registering an interest in this opportunity via The Chest Procurement Portal. All correspondence, clarifications and submissions must be made via The Chest. For support to use the Chest please contact Proactis Help Centre: https://supplierhelp.due-north.com/
