This initiative falls under the category of architectural, engineering, and planning services within the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement is currently at the Tender stage, with the submission deadline set for 7th July 2017, after which the contract period will commence on 3rd August 2017 and run until 30th November 2018. The tender follows an open procedure method, allowing for wide participation. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in community planning, social research, and consultancy services related to ethnic and cultural groups. Companies with expertise in conducting needs assessments or those experienced in local government planning will find this project particularly relevant. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to bid, enhancing their opportunities to contribute to the Runnymede 2035 Local Plan, which is foundational to future housing developments for the travelling community. ## Notice The Council is looking to secure the services of a consultant to complete a robust and up-to-date needs assessment of accommodation needs for gypsies and travellers for the period 2017-2035. The study will be one of the evidence base studies that will underpin the Runnymede 2035 Local Plan. It will also be used by the Council to make planning decisions on applications for traveller accommodation, and enable the Council to comply with its requirements in relation to gypsies and travellers. The TAA should provide a robust and credible assessment of potential need for gypsy and traveller accommodation within the borough of Runnymede. As well as seeking to identify whether there are any current and future permanent accommodation needs, the study should also identify whether or not the Council needs to plan for the provision of transit sites or emergency stopping places. The study must consider the needs of all types of gypsies and travellers which meet the definition set out in the PPTS. This will include English, Scottish, Welsh and Romany Gypsies, Irish Travellers, New (Age) Travellers, and Travelling Showpeople.
