## Summary

The London Councils is seeking proposals for the development of a Business Plan and Prospectus for a Collaborative Delivery Vehicle aimed at increasing housing capacity across its 32 boroughs and the City of London. This procurement process is currently at the Award stage, with the contract being valued at £62,500, and having started on 12th December 2016, it is set to conclude on 30th June 2017. The tender was originally published on 22nd November 2016, following a direct procurement method using a single tender action, which indicates it was open to a select group of suppliers.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in management consultancy, particularly those with experience in public sector projects and housing development. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector organisations (VCSEs) are encouraged to consider bidding, given the nature of the project which seeks collaborative solutions to housing demand challenges in London. Interested parties should review the detailed requirements and documents available on the London Councils website to tailor their proposals effectively.

## Notice

London Councils represents London's 32 boroughs and the City of London. We are a cross-party organisation that works on behalf of all of our member authorities regardless of political persuasion. London Councils makes the case to government, the Mayor and others to get the best deal for Londoners and to ensure that our member authorities have the resources, freedoms and powers to do the best possible job for their residents and local businesses. London Councils runs a number of direct services for member authorities including the Freedom Pass, Taxicard and Health Emergency Badge. It also runs an independent parking appeals service and a pan-London grants programme for voluntary organisations. London Councils acts as a catalyst for effective sharing among boroughs - be that ideas, good practice, people, resources, or policies and new approaches. London Councils' members face a significant challenge in meeting the demand for housing from Londoners. Demand for homes increases by around 50,000 each year, yet delivery of new homes has been an average of 22,000 per annum. London Councils wishes to help its members increase their home building capacity to meet that challenge while enhancing the quality of life in our many communities. To this end and amongst a range of initiatives, London Councils is now seeking tenders to develop a business case and prospectus for a Collaborative Delivery Vehicle (CDV) for housing that is available for use on a voluntary basis by all London boroughs and the City of London Corporation. Further information on the research objectives as well outputs required are provided in the Invitation To Tender document accompanying this notice and hosted on our website at http://www.londoncouncils.gov.uk/node/30741/. Here you will also find accompanying FOI and Equal Opportunities documentation that is to be submitted as part of your bid. Please note that answers to any queries about this tender will be published only on the above website page.
