Contract Summary

Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority (CPCA) wishes to conduct pre-market engagement with consultancies within the financial services sector, who may be interested in working with the CPCA on this exciting and ambitious project to deliver a range of net zero finance initiatives. CPCA’s ambition is to establish a dynamic purchasing system (DPS) to appoint Suppliers who will support three local authority pilots by providing access to relevant financial skills, knowledge and experience to deliver programmes of work which will support the realisation of a series of ambitious/high profile net zero projects. Further projects may be established during the lifetime of the DPS, and therefore the intention is that a range of public sector customers may utilise the DPS in due course. The intention is to identify innovative and collaborative Suppliers who will assist in achieving the authorities’ objectives. In terms of the estimated value of the DPS, at this juncture CPCA estimates that this will be in the region of £20m over the lifetime of the DPS. However, this remains subject to confirmation and represents CPCA’s current estimate only The purpose of this pre-market engagement exercise is to enable CPCA to engage with prospective bidders, by sharing CPCA’s aspirations for the DPS and seeking input/feedback which will inform CPCA’s approach to the procurement process and the resultant contracts. A briefing document is available on our e-tendering portal, which provides further information. The first step within this process will be to hold a pre-market engagement briefing event. This event will provide an opportunity to learn more about the CPCA’s objectives for the DPS. This will be held via Microsoft Teams on 18 April 2024 between 15:00 – 17:00 hrs (UK time). CPCA intends to record the session and make this available together with a copy of the slides afterwards. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and provide any initial feedback. Should you wish to attend this event, please email chantel.allott@cambridgeshirepeterborough-ca.gov.uk with the following information: (i) the name of your organisation; (ii) the names/job titles of each attendee; and (iii) email addresses for each attendee. The second step will be to ask participants to respond to a questionnaire which can be found in the briefing note, which can be accessed on our e-tendering portal. Any information/feedback shared with CPCA will be considered for the purposes of confirming the approach to the forthcoming procurement process. Instructions on how to respond to a questionnaire can be found in the attached briefing note. Any information/feedback shared with CPCA will be considered for the purposes of confirming the approach to the forthcoming procurement process. CPCA would ask that such responses are sent to CPCA via the e-tendering portal Procontract by 17:00 hrs on 25 April 2024.
