About

West of England Combined Authority awarded a contract to Hardisty Jones Associates Ltd for a research project to inform the emerging Local Growth Plan, driving economic growth in the region over the short term (12-18 months) and long term (up to 10 years).

The project includes two workstreams: industry consultations to gain insight on growth opportunities in key industry groups, and a literature review to inform a future growth strategy for the Somer Valley.

The objective is to understand regional opportunities, determine areas where the West of England Combined Authority is competitive, and identify opportunities for job creation and economic development.

The project will deliver a written report answering research questions, with a suggested methodology that is flexible and open to discussion with the successful applicant.

The contract value is £37,250.
