In this present instance, the Council is issuing this Invitation to Tender as a Further Competition under Lot 8f of ESPO's Consultancy Services Framework (reference 664).

The Isle of Wight Council, as Local Planning Authority, wishes to commission a Retail Assessment to inform the review of the current Island Plan Core Strategy and the new policies of the new Island Planning Strategy.

The Retail Assessment will provide an evidence base to assist the council in understanding its town centres and developing policies to support and strengthen town centres across the Island.
