## Summary

Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council has completed the procurement process for the "Horizon 2050" contract, which focused on researching and developing a long-term vision for the borough's growth until 2050. This initiative is classified under services, specifically research consultancy and market research. The contract was awarded on 16th May 2017, and the contract period runs from 17th May 2017 to 30th October 2017. The services were to be delivered in the South East region of England, employing a selective procurement method via a restricted procedure.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for consultancy firms and market research agencies looking to engage with local government projects aimed at sustainable growth. Businesses well-suited to compete would include those with expertise in community engagement, urban planning, and strategic research, particularly SMEs, as the procurement process encourages small enterprises to participate. By winning such contracts, businesses can not only contribute to significant local initiatives but also expand their portfolio and reputation within the public sector market.

## Notice

To ensure the council continues to meet the local aspirations for controlled and sustainable growth in the future, a more defined view of what the borough could look like in 2050, together with the interventions required to support this, was needed. Understanding and engaging with residents and stakeholders will be a vital element of the visioning work and as such, Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council were seeking to engage a research and consultancy partner to assist in the development of this long-term vision to 2050.
