Description

**Re-issued in relation to a Contract Award Notice**
This procurement process is being carried out by Southend-on-Sea Borough Council (The Council) on behalf of "Creative Estuary" (The Client). The aim of the procurement process is to appoint a suitably experienced Consultant, to provide the Client access to consultancy advice and reporting on a range of subjects, as they relate to the Creative and Cultural Industries in the Thames Estuary Area. The range of subjects for which the Client requires advice and reporting on includes but is not limited to, Business Planning, Legal Advice, Legislation, Property, and Investment.

The procurement process will be carried out in a manner comparable with The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 "Open" Tender Procedure. However, it must be noted the associated value of the procurement process is considerably less than the current stipulated threshold and therefore it does not fall under the full rigor of the Public Contract Regulations (Part 2).

The deadline for receipt of clarification requests relating to the Tender Documents is: 14:00, 15th March 2021.
