In plain English

North Norfolk District Council is hiring environmental consultants to carry out a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA), an environmental review process required by law, to support the creation of their new Local Plan. The work involves preparing reports, evaluating the plan's environmental impact, and providing ongoing advice throughout the planning process.

What the buyer wants

• Prepare a SEA Scoping Report at the start of the Local Plan process • Produce Environmental Reports and SEA documentation at key stages as the plan develops • Provide ongoing advice and support to integrate the SEA process with the Council's Local Plan programme • Help identify, describe and evaluate the likely environmental effects of the emerging Local Plan and reasonable alternatives

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: This contract is highly specialised and requires expert-level knowledge of UK planning law, environmental assessment, and Local Plan preparation. Most general tradespeople and small builders would not have the qualifications needed, and it is unlikely to suit construction, electrical, plumbing or other traditional trades.
