Description

We are seeking consultancy support to carry out the development of business cases and submission of an application we require consultants to have:
• Knowledge, experience and technical expertise of carrying out HM Treasury Green Book appraisal of capital projects.
• Familiarity with the Levelling Up Fund (any information on the experience of Levelling Up Fund Round 1 should be noted in your submission) and experience of supporting local authorities in delivering their Strategic Plans is essential.
• An initial meeting with each project, to identify further information required to develop a full business case to meet the requirements of a submission.
• Meetings or discussions with the project leader (internal or external) to ask questions on individual project proposals to address any matters arising and ensure a complete business case is undertaken with the full facts. You should estimate to meet once with each project for the purposes of the tender with all other correspondence being undertaken by telephone.

We ask tenderers to bid based on developing businesses cases and submissions for two packages each with up to three linked projects. Bidders are asked to quote for developing a third and fourth bid, again each containing up to three projects with a day rate for additional appraisal work and any management support to the NNC team managing the bidding round.
