- Framework
- An agreement that sets terms for work the buyer may order later, often from several suppliers. The value shown usually covers the whole agreement, not one job.
- Open for bids / closing date
- You must submit by the closing date and time, normally through the buyer's own online portal. Late bids are normally refused.
- Clarification questions
- A deadline for asking the buyer questions about the tender. It is earlier than the closing date.
- Conditions of participation
- What the buyer asks suppliers to show before they can be considered, such as experience, insurance or accreditations.
- Bids are scored on
- How the buyer will compare bids, usually a split between price and quality. A 60/40 split in favour of quality means the cheapest bid will not necessarily win.
- Lots
- A tender can be split into parts. You can often bid for only the lots that suit you.
- Area (ITL)
- The buyer names an official statistical area for where the work is, not a street address. Check the tender documents for the actual sites.
- UK4 and other notice codes
- Official codes for the type of notice. A "tender notice" means bids are being invited.

The role of the Planning Consultant will include, as a minimum:
• leading and coordinating the planning strategy for the Project;
• reviewing, validating and developing the existing planning strategy already established during the design competition process;
• advising on planning policy, heritage, listed building, stakeholder and programme matters relevant to the Project;
• leading engagement with Westminster City Council, Historic England and other statutory consultees and stakeholders;
• supporting the preparation, coordination and submission of planning applications, Listed Building Consent applications and associated supporting documentation;
• advising on planning risk, mitigation and programme certainty;
• supporting the Project through design development, procurement and construction, including ongoing planning advice where required.
