Notice Title

UKIB DPS for Expert Advice Services

Notice Description

The UK Infrastructure Bank ('UKIB') is the UK government-owned policy bank, focused on increasing infrastructure investment across the United Kingdom. UKIB is partnering with the private sector and local government to finance a green industrial revolution and drive growth across the country. UKIB seeks to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System ('DPS') for the provision of expert advice.

Lot Information

Lot 1

It is proposed through this procurement to establish a DPS to provide a tool for the selection and appointment of independent advisors to provide expert advice and assurance .

UKIB requires expert advice and assurance services on its investment into companies relating to green transport, critical minerals, clean energy and grid, water, waste, carbon capture and storage, battery storage and gigafactories, and digital infrastructure amongst other sectors. Independent advisors will provide advice and assurance on topics including the background of the sponsor and counterparties, physical and financial suitability of the project, technology, and the market it operates in.

The outputs of the Services will predominantly be in the form of written reports and/or presentations. This will likely include the provision of red flag reviews, intended to act as initial screening tools to identify aspects of the asset or project that require detailed due diligence focus in subsequent stages, or present critical risks to the project.

The purpose of the DPS is to establish an efficient contracting route, through further competition, for the appointment of suitably qualified Members for projects requiring expert advice and assurance services in one or more Service Categories, and in respect of one or more Industry Sectors.

The relevant Service Categories and Industry Sectors are as set out in the procurement documents.

The Industry Sectors which UKIB is working in may change over time, and UKIB therefore reserves the right to add additional Industry Sectors to the DPS during the term of the DPS.
