Examples including the Future High Street, Towns, Community Renewal and Levelling Up Funds. The main replacement for EU funding - from which the county of Norfolk has benefitted significantly over the years - is the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, which comes operation in 2022. It is expected that this Fund will be allocated on a similar, targeted geographic basis, at district level. The 'long-term allocation profile' (Community Renewal Fund Prospectus, 3 March 2021) for the Shared Prosperity Fund will be published later this year. Norfolk County Council and its partners are therefore seeking to procure a three-year Norfolk Investment Framework that outlines: o Key challenges and opportunities for the county, with robust evidence to support them - at district level, wherever possible o Priorities for investment, against which a Norfolk Investment Framework Programme Board can invite bids, or commission projects and programmes to deliver priority outcomes o Key outputs and measures of success Norfolk County Council wish to award a contract to a consultancy service to develop the Norfolk Investment Framework. Applications from both organisations and freelancers with a successful track record and experience in this area are welcomed. Full details of the requirement can be found in the Service Specification, which forms a Schedule to the Terms and Conditions.
