In plain English

The North York Moors and New Forest National Park Authorities want a consultant to study how they could expand their role in two new environmental markets: Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) and Nutrient Neutrality (NN). They need an options appraisal, business case, and implementation roadmap to understand what services they could offer, like habitat banking, brokering land deals, or ecology advice.

What the buyer wants

• Conduct an options appraisal assessing potential roles the National Park Authorities could take on (regulator, advisor, broker, habitat bank operator, ecology service provider, or convenor), considering governance, resources, risks, and environmental outcomes • Develop an outline business case for the most viable option(s), including commercial viability, profit potential, operational effort, timelines, and recommended delivery models • Provide recommendations and an implementation roadmap with sequencing, dependencies, and key decision points

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: This is a specialist consultancy and strategic advisory contract. It requires deep expertise in environmental policy, BNG/NN legislation, and business planning. Most tradespeople (builders, electricians, cleaners, landscapers) would be disqualified unless they are established consultancies or have led similar government policy projects.
