Cambridge City Council - Cambridge City Portrait - Market Engagement

Tender description

The desired outcome of this soft market testing is to gain insight into the market, gauge the level of interest from potential providers and gather feedback on the feasibility of the Council's proposals ahead of making a procurement to secure a service provider. Cambridge City Council, supported by the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority, wishes to conduct preliminary market consultations with interested parties in relation to the development of a Cambridge City Portrait. Building on the principles of Doughnut Economics, Six Capitals, UN Sustainable Development Goals, Legatum Prosperity Index, Thriving Places Index and other holistic models, Cambridge City Council wishes to procure professional services to develop an analytical report and a data framework. These products should enable the City Council and partners to track progress against key sustainable economic, social and environmental goals in Cambridge, on a regular basis produce outputs that can be presented in an engaging way that aids public understanding. The Council intends to hold a pre-tender event on Wednesday 20th July, between 09.30 - 11.00 via Microsoft Teams. If you are potentially interested in bidding for this work, please join us at the pre-tender event to hear more about our requirements and to discuss with us the feasibility of what we are seeking. A budget of £80,000 has been set aside for the project. Consortium bids are encouraged where this can support project outcomes.
