Summary of the contracting process

Palladium International Limited is seeking consultancy and technical assistance services to help the Government of Madagascar embed renewable energy requirements in mining licensing, environmental permitting and environmental and social impact assessment processes. The assignment will design, support adoption of and help implement a Green Mining Energy Framework following the reopening of mining permits. Its outputs will include a diagnostic and design-options package, the framework and guidance for government adoption, plus implementation and compliance materials, templates, monitoring tools and capacity-building support. The intended outcome is to reduce future diesel dependence and support lower-emission mining development. Work will be delivered in Madagascar. The requirement covers energy, mining, electrical, research and development consultancy, and environmental services.

This procurement has reached the tender stage: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure above threshold. The deadline for submitting offers is 21 September 2026 at 17:00 British Summer Time. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. Its estimated value is £350,000. The procurement is for services and is presented as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The requirement is a single assignment rather than a stated multi-lot competition. The tender materials and application information are available in English, with French submission documents also provided. The published requirement does not set out an award weighting or other evaluation basis in the available procurement details.

This opportunity suits consultancy firms with experience in renewable energy integration, mining-sector regulation, environmental permitting and environmental and social impact assessment. Strong candidates are likely to be able to diagnose regulatory and operational barriers, develop practical policy and licensing requirements, and translate them into an implementable Green Mining Energy Framework. Relevant capability includes preparing government guidance, compliance approaches, templates and monitoring tools, alongside delivering training and capacity building for public-sector users. Suppliers should be able to work on lower-emission mining and reducing diesel dependence, and to operate effectively in Madagascar. Experience supporting government adoption of regulatory frameworks, mining investments or energy-transition measures would be directly relevant. The stated suitability for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises broadens the potential supplier base.

Notice Description

La description de l'appel d'offres ainsi que les documents de soumission sont egalement disponibles en francais. Veuillez consulter les pieces jointes pour plus d'informations.

Key outputs include a diagnostic and design options package, a Green Mining Energy Framework and supporting guidance for government adoption, and an implementation and compliance package with templates, monitoring tools and capacity-building support. The project aims to reduce future diesel dependence in the mining sector and support lower-emission mining development in Madagascar.
