Key elements planned for the development include new two new primary schools, a secondary school, health centre and a green corridor connecting to nearby New Hall Valley Country Park.
The winning team will produce a viable masterplan, development delivery plan and supporting documents for the project.
The completed documents will be used to determine future planning applications and will also be expected to demonstrate how the urban extension meets Birmingham Development Plan policies
The deadline for returning tenders is 24 June.
