## Summary

The Newark & Sherwood District Council has recently concluded a procurement process for an "Open Space Strategy" aimed at enhancing open space standards within the district from 2019 to 2033. This tender, which fell under the services category classified as research and development and environmental services, had an overall budget of £25,000. The tender period ended on 4th November 2019, following which an award was made to Knight, Kavanagh & Page for £23,475 on 19th November 2019. The contract is scheduled to commence on 18th November 2019 and will run until 13th March 2020, with delivery expected in the East Midlands region of England.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in urban planning, environmental consultancy, and research and development services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete in this process, especially firms with expertise in creating robust evidence bases and strategies that enhance community access to open spaces. The project not only aims to improve existing facilities but also to ensure that future developments meet the required standards, thereby fostering business growth in related sectors.

## Notice

Quotations are invited to produce a new Open Spaces Strategy (OSS) for Newark & Sherwood, covering the period 2019-2033. This assessment should provide for a robust and sound evidence base (captured on GIS), informing the inclusion of updated open space standards within the Developer Contributions and Planning Obligations Supplementary Planning Document, and against which decisions on planning applications can be made. The assessment should also provide a robust framework to help (if required) protect the existing open space network, enhance and improve the accessibility and quality of existing provision and provide new open space to expand the network strategically.
