## Summary

The East Staffordshire Borough Council has completed a tender process for a "Retail & Leisure Study" valued at £37,000 in Burton upon Trent, England. The study aims to provide evidence of retail and leisure trends, update town centre strategies, and support the long-term vitality and viability of town centres. The procurement method used was a limited competitive quotation process, with a tender period ending on 19th April 2024 and a contract period from 1st July 2024 to 1st January 2025.

This opportunity is well-suited for consultants and businesses specialising in feasibility studies, urban planning services, and advisory analyses. The Council's focus on complying with national planning policies and fostering cooperation with neighbouring authorities creates a conducive environment for stakeholders keen on contributing to sustainable development. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to participate, aligning with the Council's commitment to inclusive procurement practices.

## Notice

The Council is seeking to appoint suitably qualified consultants to produce a Retail and Leisure Study. The Retail and Leisure Study must be compliant with National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), the requirements of Planning Practice Guidance (PPG), cognisant of the evolving requirements of the Levelling-up and Regeneration Act 2023, and assist the authority to meet its duty to cooperate with neighbouring authorities on strategic matters that cross administrative boundaries. The Study will help to inform any forthcoming review of the local plan and retail and leisure policies and town centre strategies by providing robust evidence of retail and leisure trends, updating the retail hierarchy, reviewing the extent of the town centre boundaries and primary and secondary shopping areas whilst making sufficient provision for retail and leisure uses. The study will help deliver a positive strategy for each town centre allowing them to grow and diversify considering the implications and opportunities from the revisions to the Use Classes Order and definition of town centre uses and the retention and the creation of new markets which can promote the centres long term vitality and viability for the next 10 years and up to 2043 and contribute to the achievement of sustainable development.
