The London Borough of Lambeth are seeking to appoint a consultancy to provide support to its Development Management team. This support will comprise of assessment of energy and sustainability submissions that accompany relevant planning applications (excluding applications which are subject to Planning Performance Agreements) and condition/s106 discharge applications. Following assessment, the Council will require you to advise on the degree of compliance with current planning policy requirements, on potential amendments that would further improve the performance of the developments and on suggested conditions and planning obligations that would ensure the delivery of the highest standards of sustainable design and construction and subsequent operation. Timing of responses to all consultations are expected to be as swift as possible, to enable the council to deliver against its statutory planning application performance targets - 8 weeks for minor and other applications and 13 weeks for major applications and should form part of your proposal. The selected contractor delivering the service will be required to collaborate remotely with officers within the Development Management service. The provision will be for an off-site, electronic service. Meetings and site visits for more complex sites may also be required from time to time along with occasional attendance at the council's Planning Applications Committee.
