## About this tender

Shropshire Council currently lacks the resources to assess viability appraisals submitted by an applicant and developer and is therefore seeking a suitably experienced and qualified 'service provider' to undertake independent reviews of submitted appraisals.

There are challenges from developers regarding the ability of the scheme to satisfy policy requirements, particularly regarding affordable housing. Challenges based on scheme viability can occur at one of several stages in the development process: -

- Pre-development - during planning application consideration
- Post determination - Reserved Matters and Full application stage
- Post completion - particularly in respect of developments that fall below the threshold for on-site affordable housing provision. CS11 provided that all open market residential development contributed to the provision of affordable housing at the current prevailing target rate by way of a financial contribution, secured by a S106 Agreement. This contribution is required to be paid two years from commencement for single dwellings. This payment again is challenged on viability grounds at the time when payment is supposed to made.

The contract will be between Shropshire Council and the successful provider and will cover the terms for undertaking the service. This contract must be agreed by both parties before any payments are made.

Your quote should be returned by email by 12pm on 22nd August 2019
