Digital Support for the Local Plan

Breckland Council (the "Council") is inviting quotations for the supply of digital support for the Local Plan. This will be divided into 3 lots: Lot 1. A community engagement platform. Lot 2. A digital consultation reviewer with summary capabilities Lot 3. A back of house platform for Local Plan writing and editing The Council is currently using an online community engagement platform to assist in reaching its diverse community across our geographically large district comprising 5 market towns and over 100 rural parishes. The aim is to keep this method of consultation available to increase community engagement in the Local Plan process and reach a greater number of people from all parts of the district and across all socio-economic groups and give them the opportunity to interact and share views, facilitate feedback, analyse this feedback and collaborate on future ideas. As part of the Local Plan process, numerous responses are received from the public consultations. We are looking at digital options to reduce the time taken to sort, read and summarise these responses.
