Provision of Conventional Property and Land Valuations services to North London Waste Authority
Authority: North London Waste Authority (Public body)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionNorth London Waste Authority (NLWA) owns a diverse portfolio of land, properties and facilities across north London. For a number of these sites, NLWA requires assistance in developing and implementing planning applications as well as expert advisory services for the purchase and sale of assets. Securing the necessary planning or regulatory permissions is crucial for optimising the use and value of these assets.
The successful supplier will be expected to deliver end-to-end support for planning application management, including the preparation, submission and continual refinement of planning and regulatory proposals. This process must be underpinned by a robust understanding of local planning policies, regulatory frameworks and sustainability requirements. Proposals should detail how an integrated, interdisciplinary approach-drawing on
expertise in architecture, engineering, urban planning and sustainability-will be used to navigate complex regulatory landscapes and secure favourable outcomes.
In addition, the supplier will provide strategic advisory services for property transactions, ensuring that decisions related to the purchase, sale, or repurposing of land, property and facilities are informed by comprehensive market analysis and digital, data- driven insights. The approach should offer a forward-thinking, holistic framework that not only addresses immediate regulatory challenges, but also enhances long-term asset value and operational efficiency.
For more information about the procurement and the specialist skills required, please refer to the associated tender documents. In particular, prospective bidders must ensure that they have read and fully understood the "Specialist Skills Required" in Schedule 2 of the Invitation to Tender before submitting a proposal. This specifies the mandatory competencies, sectoral expertise and methodological proficiencies against which all bids will be assessed.
Failure to address each criterion set out in this section in its entirety will render a submission non-compliant and ineligible for further consideration. Bidders are strongly advised to familiarise themselves thoroughly with these requirements and to structure their responses so as to demonstrate clear alignment with every aspect of the Authority's evaluation framework.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
