Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "BE24162 - Global Calculator Upgrade" was conducted by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ). It falls under the industry category of Design-modelling services, classified by the CPV code 72242000. The procurement followed a selective method via a dynamic purchasing system (DPS) as a call-off. The contract, awarded to Frazer-Nash Consultancy Ltd, involves work across a wide geographic range including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, and other international regions. Originally set to end on 8th July 2025, the contract end date has been extended to 8th December 2025, with the value increased to £130,000. The procurement stage is complete, and the process notably reflects DESNZ's commitment to upgrading the Global Calculator with recent net zero assumptions.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses providing design and modelling services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the energy and technology sectors. Engaging in such contracts allows businesses to expand their exposure and network within the UK Government's environmental and energy initiatives. The initiative not only enhances their portfolio in the growing sustainable industry but also positions them to contribute to international discussions on climate solutions. Frazer-Nash Consultancy Ltd, a large-scale supplier, was successful in obtaining this award, illustrating the potential for other consultancies with expertise in similar fields to explore collaboration with governmental departments like DESNZ.
