## Summary

The London Borough of Ealing has completed the procurement process for the "Character Study and Housing Design Guidance" project, which aims to strengthen the Borough’s Local Plan and align with emerging London Plan policies. This project was classified under the CPV category for Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services, and involved a competitive quotation procurement method. The contract was awarded on 20 May 2020, with a total contract value of £69,985, and the work is scheduled to be carried out from 1 February 2020 to 31 October 2020. The primary delivery address for the project is in the vicinity of postal code W5 2HL.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in architectural and design services, particularly those with experience in urban studies and housing design. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) will find themselves well-positioned to compete, given the procurement's focus on engaging diverse suppliers. The work entails developing area-specific planning solutions that align with broader urban development goals, which could lead to further contracts and partnerships within the building and construction industry.
