Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "PS21027 Offshore Wind Manufacturing Investment Scheme - Process Evaluation" has been conducted by UK Shared Business Services Limited, focusing on research and development consultancy services within the offshore wind industry. The contract for this evaluation, valued at £64,975, commenced on 24th June 2021 and is scheduled to conclude on 31st March 2022. The procurement method utilised for this process was selective, operating under a dynamic purchasing system, and the tender was awarded on 14th June 2021, with the details published on 7th July 2021. The evaluation intends to assess the Offshore Wind Manufacturing Investment Scheme's effectiveness and its delivery against future policymaking needs, with stakeholder interviews taking place primarily in London.

This tender presents significant opportunities for consultancy firms, particularly those specialised in market and economic research, as well as other businesses involved in supply chain analysis and policy evaluation in the renewable energy sector. Given the scheme aims to enhance the UK's offshore wind manufacturing capabilities, businesses that engage with local port authorities or have experience in construction projects would be well-suited to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to explore participation, given the inclusive nature of the evaluation framework designed to gather diverse stakeholder insights.

Notice Title

PS21027 Offshore Wind Manufacturing Investment Scheme - Process Evaluation

Notice Description

**THIS IS NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION** This award was made under Crown Commercial Services Research Marketplace Dynamic Purchasing System RM6018 This contract is for the delivery of an early process evaluation of the Offshore Wind Manufacturing Investment Scheme (OWMIS). As set out in the Government's Ten Point Plan , the Offshore Wind Manufacturing Investment Scheme (OWMIS) aims to substantially grow the UK's offshore wind manufacturing and industrial base through two key interventions - 1) providing partial direct funding to coastal landowners willing to develop major new integrated manufacturing port hubs (IMPHs), 2) in parallel, providing investment aid to draw large and strategically important manufacturing projects to these sites through the Manufacturing Investment Programme. The project therefore seeks to deliver against the following aims: * Evaluate the effectiveness of the scheme's delivery in practice compared to what was intended, * Gather evidence to support the design and delivery of future offshore wind supply chain policymaking, * Inform the development of a potential future evaluation of the scheme, including impact and value-for-money evaluations. The evaluation is expected to consist of three key tasks: Task 1: Evaluating the delivery of the port competition and the port's early implementation and construction This will consist of qualitative research with scheme applicants, non-applicants, and BEIS delivery leads. The initial tranche of interviews (in July-August 2021) are timed to take place as soon as possible after the competition's completion (in February 2021) to provide evidence to support ongoing policymaking. Task 2: Evaluating the early delivery of the Manufacturing Investment Programme This will include qualitative research with applicants to the Manufacturing Investment Programme, exploring their experiences of the application process. Task 3: Scoping out a future value-for-money assessment and collecting baseline data This phase is expected to consist of scoping work to identify a suitable value-for-money approach to be used in a potential future evaluation of the scheme. Where reasonably possible, BEIS expects the successful bidder to collect relevant baseline data to support such an assessment in the future, based on the approach identified.
