Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the contract titled "RO FIT CFD Targeted Audits and Stat Audits" is conducted by Ofgem, the UK's regulator for electricity and gas markets, based in London. The process is finalised with the award stage complete and the contract being signed on 1st April 2025. This procurement focuses on auditing services, specifically designed to reduce fraud and error in environmental schemes across the United Kingdom. The open procurement method was employed, with the process previously undergoing an extension of the tender submission deadline to 3rd December 2024. Ofgem, as the central purchasing body, ensured that the primary industry category involved services related to energy and environmental auditing, with an overall contract value of £5,090,455 GBP.

This tender represents a robust opportunity for businesses specialising in auditing services, particularly those with expertise in environmental and energy sectors. Companies that can deliver technical audits and demonstrate quality assurance in their processes, like Black & Veatch (U.K.) Limited, the awarded supplier, will find substantial growth opportunities by reducing non-compliance risks and adding value for UK taxpayers. The contract's requirements for subcontracting involvement suggest that even smaller entities with a minimum of subcontracting capabilities could participate effectively. Therefore, businesses that are adept at managing large-scale audit programs or those with experience in the UK energy sector stand to benefit significantly from involvement in such contracts. This procurement not only offers direct business growth but also positions firms strategically within the public sector auditing framework.
