Scope
Description
The procurement was structured as a business-led, limited competition, split into two distinct Lots to reflect the
different but complementary workstreams required to support the development of the Creative Experience Lab
London (CELL) programme:
• Lot 1 related to consultancy support for the development of the CELL Business Case.
• Lot 2 related to the mapping of the London Experience Economy to inform and evidence the Business
Case.
The estimated values at procurement stage were £15,000 for Lot 1 and £25,000 for Lot 2. The competition was
proportionate to the scale and nature of the requirement. Following the competition, one compliant bid was
received, which demonstrated the required technical capability, relevant experience, and value for money across
both Lots.
The initial contract value is £35,000, reflecting the combined scope of both Lots. This represents the Authority’s
current financial commitment and aligns with approved Programme and Finance authorisations.
The contract includes headroom up to a maximum value of £100,000, exercisable strictly at the Authority’s
discretion, subject to the availability of funding and appropriate internal approvals. Any additional expenditure
would relate to further development work, deeper analysis, or extended support directly aligned to the CELL
programme and would not constitute an automatic commitment.
