## Summary

The Greater Manchester Combined Authority has awarded a contract for "Provision of a resource and associated programme of dissemination events to improve urban planning's contribution to River Basin Management Plan delivery". The contract falls under the Research and Development services category, with a value of £66,320.75. The tender, issued through an open procedure, had a tender closing date of 4th September 2023. The contract period is from 25th September 2023 to 31st March 2024.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses, especially those in the research and development services sector, to participate in the project aimed at improving urban planning's contribution to River Basin Management Plan delivery. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprise sector (VCSE) organisations are well-suited to compete for this contract. Interested parties should engage with the Greater Manchester Combined Authority to explore potential collaborations and business growth opportunities in this domain.

## Notice

National policies supporting the Government's 25 Year Environment Plan, including Biodiversity Net Gain, Local Nature Recovery Strategies and Green Infrastructure Standards, will provide new ways to deliver WFD objectives through urban planning and development. Therefore, there is now an opportunity to maximise the translation of these new policies into WFD outcomes. Now that the challenges and barriers to achieving optimal WFD outcomes are better understood Greater Manchester Combined Authority and the Environment Agency wish to commission the production of a tool or resource that will enable local authority planning officers and others to maximise the delivery of RBMP objectives and the aims of the WFD (this part of project will be delivered under contract to GMCA). In order to promote the uptake and use of the tool GMCA & EA would like the supplier to organise a programme of seminars or networking events or training sessions to help provide local authority planners and others with the confidence to use the resources and to optimise WFD delivery.
