This initiative is part of the development of the UK's first National Marine Park and is classified under services related to architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services. The tender was published on 23 December 2021, and while it is ongoing, it has a deadline for submissions set for 11 January 2022. The contract period will commence on 14 February 2022 and run until 30 November 2022, with opportunities available for businesses located in England. This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) looking to grow in the architectural and engineering sectors. Businesses that offer research and development services, as well as consultancy related to marine parks or similar public projects, would be particularly well-suited to participate. The funding of £9.58 million from the National Lottery Heritage Fund indicates a robust investment in this initiative, potentially enhancing the reach and impact for companies engaged in relevant services. ## Notice 21672 - Expression of Interest - Business Support Plymouth, Britain's Ocean City, made history in 2019 when key local, regional and national partners came together to create the UK's first ever National Marine Park (NMP). This has cross-party support locally and has now been recognised by central Government. Plymouth City Council is helping to co-ordinate the development and delivery of the National Marine Park. In June 2021 the Plymouth City Council was awarded PS9.58million from the National Lottery Heritage Fund - Heritage Horizon Awards - towards the development of the NMP. Thanks to the lottery players, we can now start bringing the Park to life. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/32e272d8-7156-4720-be4b-4e29d5602e39 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not applicable | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Dec 2021 | | Submission deadline | 11 Jan 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 14 Feb 2022 - 30 Nov 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | PLYMOUTH CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | PLYMOUTH | | Post town | Plymouth | | Postcode | PL1 3BJ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK4 Devon | | ITL 3 | TLK41 Plymouth | | Local authority | Plymouth | | Electoral ward | St Peter and the Waterfront | | Westminster constituency | Plymouth Sutton and Devonport | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 71000000 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 23 Dec 2021 at 14:35 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/32e272d8-7156-4720-be4b-4e29d5602e39 - 23 Dec 2021 at 13:16 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4e99165d-f53e-419b-abd5-640476b0daf2 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/32e272d8-7156-4720-be4b-4e29d5602e39 23rd December 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4e99165d-f53e-419b-abd5-640476b0daf2 23rd December 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.plymouth.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
