Summary of the contracting process

The Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) is seeking proposals for the provision of services related to the Heat Networks Investment Project (HNIP) aimed at enhancing heat network development in the UK. The procurement process is currently in the award stage, following the completion of the tender period which ended on 26 July 2017. The contract, valued at £40,000, is set to commence from 15 August 2017 and will run until 31 March 2018, with a potential extension. This project is crucial for achieving significant investment towards building a self-sustaining heat network market and is located in the West Midlands, UK.

This procurement opportunity presents significant business growth potential for SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) with expertise in event services and network development. Firms specialised in energy infrastructure, sustainability, and project management would find this particularly relevant, as the contract aims to enable successful delivery of government-funded heat network projects. Interested businesses should prepare to demonstrate their capability to contribute towards the project's goals, which include increasing investment in heat networks and achieving long-term carbon reductions.

Provision of services relating to the heatworks investment project to the Department of Business Energy and Industrial Strategy.

Notice Description

This contract will deliver activities required in the lead up to the launch of the main funding round of the PS320m Heat Networks Investment Project (HNIP). The activities need to run between September 2017 and March 2018. The key aims of the PS320m Heat Networks Investment Project (HNIP) is to: * Increase the volume of heat networks built though providing central Government funding to 2021 which will draw in significant additional investment * Deliver carbon savings for carbon budgets 4 and 5 (spanning the years 2023-2032) and across the lifetime of the infrastructure asset * Build capability among local actors to develop optimised heat networks that will meet local needs, supporting heat networks that would not have been developed without Government support * Help to create the conditions for a self-sustaining heat network market that does not require continued Government funding after this programme of investment support. Additional information: If you wish to take part in this procurement please see the tender documents attached to this Notice and send your completed proposal to Alison Bailey at the address stipulated in the "Who to Contact" section. Any late submissions will not be considered. BEIS reserves the right to halt the procurement process and to not award a contract.

Completed tender submission must be returned by post to BEIS, address given at the top of this advertisement, by 10:00hrs on 26 JULY 2017. We require 4 hard copies (one of which must be signed). Electronic versions of your bid are to be sent by 12:00hrs on 26 JULY 2017 to Alison Bailey (alison.bailey@beis.gov.uk).
