The Department for Communities is seeking an Integrated Consultant Team (ICT) to provide a range of strategic planning, financial, legal, architectural, and conservation architecture advice. This framework will support regeneration matters within the Department's remit, covering high-level strategic advice on urban and community regeneration, local government and housing regulation, planning, transport, master planning, urban design, community asset transfer, retail development, property valuations, and procurement strategies. The team will also offer ad hoc planning and urban design advisory services. The framework, delivered using an NEC4 Framework Contract, will issue Work Orders and Time Charge Orders via NEC4 Professional Services Short Contracts on an as-needed basis. The scope acknowledges that requirements may evolve due to changes in government policy, legislation, funding, and emerging project needs, allowing for modifications under the Procurement Act 2023. Potential future requirements include strategic planning and regeneration studies, masterplanning, urban design, place-making commissions, economic and financial assessments, stakeholder engagement, and specialist legal, planning, transport, or property advice. There is no guarantee of workload volume or value, as commissions depend on operational priorities, project approvals, and funding availability.<\/p>","calendar_date":"20261007","intro":"
