## Summary

East Lindsey District Council is seeking a consultant to prepare an Integrated Impact Assessment for its emerging Local Plan. The work will assess the plan’s environmental, social, health, equality and economic effects, bringing together Strategic Environmental Assessment, Sustainability Appraisal, Health Impact Assessment, Equality Impact Assessment, Community Safety Impact Assessment and Habitats Regulations Assessment. The purpose is to inform and test the plan and integrate these considerations into plan-making from the outset. This is a research and development consultancy service. The Local Plan and assessment concern East Lindsey; the procurement data does not identify a more specific delivery location.

The council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The process reached the tender stage. There is one lot. Suppliers could submit enquiries until 16 October 2026 at 12:00, and offers were due by 23 October 2026 at 12:00. The estimated value is £85,000 excluding VAT (£102,000 including VAT). The contract is scheduled to run from 18 November 2026 to 18 November 2028, with a possible further 10-month extension if required. Award is based on quality, weighted at 65%, and price, weighted at 35%.

This opportunity suits environmental, planning and impact-assessment consultancies able to advise on local-plan development and assess a broad range of effects in a joined-up way. Suppliers should be suitably qualified and experienced to deliver the combined assessment, including the environmental appraisal and specialist work on sustainability, health, equality, community safety and habitats regulations. The breadth of disciplines makes it relevant to firms with an integrated in-house team or the ability to coordinate specialist expertise across these areas. The assessment must inform and test an emerging Local Plan, so bidders should be equipped to work in a strategic planning context and bring together environmental, social, health, equality and economic considerations from the outset.
