Summary of the contracting process

The Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) has initiated a procurement process titled "Energy Technical Specialist Advisor" in the services industry, specifically focusing on energy technologies that aim to minimise environmental impact. This process is currently at the Award stage, with the contract for technical advice awarded on 29 January 2019, and the contract period spanning from 30 January 2019 to 30 April 2019. The total value of the contract is £90,000, which includes an increase to accommodate an extended workload. The procurement was executed through a direct method, classified as a single tender action due to the unique need for continuity of services from the existing contractor, Ove Arup and Partners Ltd.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in energy consultancy and project management to engage in vital projects supported by EU funding. Companies with expertise in energy technologies, especially those focused on offshore wind and marine environments, would be well-suited to compete for similar contracts as they align with BEIS's requirements for enhanced technical and project management support. The growing emphasis on sustainable energy solutions suggests a promising market for firms looking to expand their offerings in this field.

Notice Title

Energy Technical Specialist Advisor

Notice Description

DemoWind and BESTF (Bioenergy Sustaining the Future) are EU ERA-NET co-funded programmes supporting the development of energy technologies that minimise the environmental impact of energy production and use. The programmes consist of grant funded projects that have at least two partners from different member states. Each collaborator is grant funded by their host country and approved projects qualify for an EU contribution of up to 33%, paid retrospectively. In addition, the UK has administrative and co-ordinating responsibilities for the programmes, including reporting, the distribution of EU funds to project participants, and dissemination. BEIS needs expert technical advice and detailed project management support to augment its in house capabilities so that it can effectively undertake these duties. In May 2017, a Technical Advisor (TA) Services Contract (with a value of PS70k) and with an end date of 31 March 2019, was put in place under the Energy Technical Specialist (ETS) Framework, Lot 2; Offshore wind and the marine environment. The contract is with: " Ove Arup Partners Ltd. The current contract for technical support due to end on 31 March 2019, consistent with the then expected workload and completion date for these programmes. Progress has been slower than expected due to staffing difficulties within BEIS which has delayed the start, and hence completion, of a number of projects. This, together with a higher than previously expected workload to provide an adequate level of project oversight, requires the TA Services contract to be extended to 30 April 2019 with an increase in budget of PS20,000 (making the total contract value PS90,000) to cover the expected workload up to that date. Additional information: This was an STA because Where the works, supplies or services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator for any of the following reasons:- Supplier already contracted to BEIS. Continuity of support services required while contractor rebids competitively using Heat Networks and Electricity Generation Assets Dynamic purchasing system.
