The contract, valued at £7,440, has a contract period from January 15, 2024, to March 31, 2024. The project falls under the services category and the procurement method used was a competitive quotation (below threshold). The tender period ended on December 31, 2023, and the contract period starts on January 15, 2024, concluding on March 31, 2024. This tender presents an opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations to participate. Businesses in the feasibility study, advisory service, and analysis sector could find this tender particularly relevant. Knutsford Town Council is the buying organisation for this procurement process, located in Knutsford, England. The project focuses on the feasibility study for a Business Improvement District in Knutsford Town Centre, with a contract timeline starting from January 15, 2024. ## Notice This project is funded by the UK government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF). The appointed contractor/supplier will be expected to ensure adherence to all UKSPF guidance. Knutsford Town Council has previously discussed the idea of a BID for Knutsford Town Centre with businesses in 2018 and 2019. In 2018 this involved a presentation from the Town Centre Manager, Altrincham BID Manager and a member of Groundwork. The presentation outlined what a BID was and how they worked, how much could be raised for Knutsford and brief examples of projects it could undertake. An informal ballot was held which resulted in a 50-50 vote. In 2019 this was followed up with an email to businesses again outlining a BID, BID process and what a Knutsford BID could achieve. Again, an informal ballot was held asking if a 1.5% rateable value levy was proposed (raising PS530,272) how would you vote. This resulted in another 50-50 split. 2020 brought the pandemic and the project was put on hold. Knutsford Town Council has now received funding to commission an external BID Feasibility Study.
