## Summary

The Bassetlaw District Council is currently engaged in a procurement process titled "Bassetlaw District Council BDCQ18-0407 Economic Development Needs Assessment." This tender falls under the urban planning services category, with a total value of £25,000. The procurement method is limited, specifically a competitive quotation below the threshold. The tender period concluded on 5th March 2018, while the contract is set to commence on 26th March 2018 and conclude by 25th September 2018. The assessment aims to support the emerging Bassetlaw Plan by evaluating employment land needs up to 2035 through comprehensive analysis and market intelligence, essential for local policy development.

This opportunity presents a significant avenue for growth for businesses specialising in urban planning, market research, and consultancy services. SMEs with expertise in economic assessments and an understanding of infrastructure constraints would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. The project offers potential for firms to leverage their capabilities in providing qualitative and quantitative assessments that contribute to strategic economic development decisions within Bassetlaw.

## Notice

In preparation of the emerging Bassetlaw Plan it will be necessary for the Council to undertake a National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and National Planning Policy Guidance (NPPG) compliant Economic Development Needs Assessment. To paraphrase these requirements, such a study should comprise: * Recent patterns of employment land supply and loss to other uses * Market intelligence and market signals (such as levels and changes in rental values, and differentials between land values in different uses) * Information in relation to infrastructure constraints * The existing stock of employment land, statistics on take-up of sites and the spatial implications of demand for employment land * The locational and premises requirements of particular types of business * Identification of oversupply and evidence of market failure The study will form a robust and credible part of the Council's evidence base that will withstand scrutiny at a Local Plan Examination. The study will provide a qualitative and quantitative assessment of employment land needed within Bassetlaw for the plan period (up to 2035) using a range of data that is current and robust. The study will inform policy development in the Local Plan and inform Economic Development strategy decisions.
