## Summary

Pendle Borough Council initiated a public procurement process titled "Green Belt Assessment" in the urban planning and landscape architectural services industry. The project was set to take place in Nelson, United Kingdom. The procurement process began with the publication of a tender on 18th September 2025, calling for a consultant to perform a comprehensive assessment of the green belt following updates to the National Green Belt policy. The open competition under the procurement method "open" was targeted below the threshold, with a closing date for tender submissions set for 10th November 2025. The contract was later awarded to HYAS Associates Ltd on 21st November 2025, with a signed contract period beginning from 1st December 2025 to 31st March 2026. Unfortunately, despite this progression, the contract was ultimately terminated upon completion on 10th June 2026.

This tender presented a significant opportunity for businesses looking to engage in public sector services, especially firms within urban planning and landscape architecture. It offered a platform for SMEs, given the suitability criteria and the below-threshold open competition structure. Businesses focusing on consultancy services could leverage their expertise in green belt assessments and potentially expand their portfolio by aligning with updates in national policies. The involvement with Pendle Borough Council, a sub-central government body, could also serve as a credential for future engagements in public sector tenders and further opportunities in urban and environmental planning projects.
