UK3 - Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The North East Combined Authority is spearheading a procurement initiative titled "North East Warm Homes (One Stop Shop)" to deliver a comprehensive domestic retrofit service throughout the region. This ambitious project is currently in the planning stage and targets the energy-efficiency consultancy sector, with a key focus on tackling fuel poverty in the private rented sector. The anticipated contract, with a value of £2,476,273, spans from 1st October 2025 to 31st March 2027, servicing the UKC region. A selective procurement method under the "light touch" regime will be used. Interested suppliers must note the deadline for submission is 7th August 2025 at midday, following an upcoming procurement notice to be released by July 11, 2025.

This procurement offers a significant opportunity for businesses in energy consulting, retrofit services, and supply chain partnerships to expand their footprint in the North East. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs), as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), are especially encouraged to participate, given the contract’s suitability status for these entities. By leveraging the £2.4 million contract, eligible businesses can capitalise on emerging markets within the energy efficiency domain, fostering growth and technological innovation while contributing to reducing fuel poverty. The collaboration necessitated by this project also promises the potential for long-term partnerships and increased presence within the local and regional markets.
