Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council procured a carbon accounting audit covering the Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions of five local authorities. The work uses artificial intelligence processes and trained consultants to assess emissions across all three scopes. The stated delivery location is England. This is a carbon accounting and emissions-audit service, despite the classification of the procurement as construction work. The requirement is focused on local-authority emissions measurement and audit, rather than general construction or carbon advice.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Co2Analysis. The council used an open procedure, described as a competitive quotation. Co2Analysis was selected on 1 June 2026, at an award value of £54,000. The contract period runs from 20 July 2026 to 1 March 2027. The original estimated procurement value was also £54,000. The tender deadline was 1 June 2026 at midday. The requirement was presented as a single audit across five authorities; no separate lots or evaluation criteria are stated in the available details. The award is recorded as active.

For suppliers considering similar work for Nottingham City Council, this award indicates demand for carbon accounting that can cover Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions across multiple local authorities. A credible competitor would need to combine practical emissions-audit expertise with the ability to use AI processes and provide trained consultants. The scope requires capacity to work across five authorities and address the full range of emissions scopes, rather than offering a narrow carbon measurement service. The selected supplier was an SME, and the procurement was also identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. Experience supporting public-sector organisations with consistent, multi-authority carbon assessment would therefore be relevant to this buyer’s requirement.
