Economic Development Tenders and Contracts

Search economic development, economic impact assessment and regeneration consultancy notices across the portals that publish them, or use Stotles to see all of it aggregated from 100+ portals in one place. Filter by buyer, stage and value, and read a council's own economic strategy documents to spot a commission before it reaches tender.

Economic impact assessment and economic research services are the closest dedicated classifications, though related work also carries business and management consultancy or urban planning codes, since economic development often sits alongside planning and regeneration briefs.

Local authorities and combined authorities are the main buyers, usually to build the evidence base for a local plan, a town centre or regeneration scheme, or a funding bid. Development agencies and some central government bodies also commission economic impact assessments for specific projects or programmes.

Typical scopes include economic development strategies and delivery plans, economic and socio-economic impact assessments, business support programme design, and evidence-base studies feeding into a local plan or funding bid. Most are short, fixed-term consultancy engagements rather than long framework agreements.
