Support to develop and Investment Strategy for York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority

The York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority requires an Investment Strategy which will support decision-making around future investment and prioritisation of propositions. This piece of work includes three key outputs: 1. Investment Strategy: an overarching narrative of current and future investment opportunities across the subregion, including both private and public sector investment opportunities. This should set out the parameters, priorities, uses and constraints of Combined Authority funding. Examples: West of England Combined Authority's Investment Strategy and Liverpool City Region Combined Authority's Investment Strategy 2023. 2. Prioritisation Assessment Tool: an assessment tool or framework which enables the Combined Authority to objectively assess the potential strategic impact of projects and their investment readiness. This must be done in an easily accessible manner for Combined Authority officers. 3. Investment Pitchbook: an external 'Investment Pitchbook' which highlights flagship projects and articulates a clear pathway to attracting investment. This document will be critical for engaging potential investors and promoting the growth opportunities within York and North Yorkshire. The Investment Strategy will sit alongside a number of other key strategic documents for the Combined Authority, including the emerging Local Growth Plan. The initial 7 month term has been budgeted at £80,000, with the option to extend for a further 6 months with a cost of £20,000. Therefore, the possible total contract value is £100,000. All tender documentation, including the specification can be found on https://yortender.eu-supply.com under reference 98646.

Development of West Yorkshire Creative Health System

The West Yorkshire Combined Authority (the CA) is issuing this Planned Procurement Notice to inform potential Consultants of an upcoming procurement opportunity for the development and implementation of a West Yorkshire Creative Health System. This system aims to align, amplify, and connect the creative health sector across the region to improve health and wellbeing outcomes for the people of West Yorkshire. The CA intends to procure a service provider (or consortium) to manage and implement a ‘Creative Health System’ for a two-year period. The maximum budget for the initial two-year period is £470,000.00 with up to two optional 12-month extensions of £235,000.00 each, bringing the total potential contract value up to £940,000.00. Extensions are subject to the availability of additional funds beyond the initial £470,000.00 and are at the sole discretion of the Public Sector Body. Key deliverables for the Creative Health System include: • Coordinating the mapping of creative health work taking place in our region (including activity, evidence of impact, and cold spots). This will include the collation of existing mapping data where it exists (typically at a Local Authority level) and commissioning additional mapping where there is insufficient data. • Establishing a network of creative health activity providers. • Advocating for creative health activity with key decision-makers (including funders and clinicians). • Developing and publishing a West Yorkshire Creative Health Strategy. • Co-designing creative health programmes with community providers and those with lived experience. • Researching potential funding sources and preparing funding bids to roll out impactful creative health programmes. • Developing commercial strategy to become self-sustaining. • Coordinating workforce training in the health care system and with practitioners. Additional Information We are inviting Consultants that have interest in providing the services, to attend a briefing session. Please respond to this Planned Procurement Notice (PPN) to express your interest. Any Consultant that expresses interest will be invited to a Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) event which will be held on 24th April 2025 between 9:30 am – 11:00am (details to follow). The CA reserves the right to change its procurement approach after the Preliminary Market Engagement.

Please Note: This Planned Procurement Notice is for prior information only and is not a ‘Call for Competition’. Whilst we encourage your participation in this exercise, failure to respond to the Preliminary Market Engagement will not prohibit your involvement in any future procurement exercise if progressed via a publicly advertised tender opportunity.
