Summary of the contracting process

The York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority has concluded a procurement process through an open procedure for the "EGAP Work Package 4 - Solar," focusing on developing Solar PV carports and associated infrastructure in six priority sites. This initiative aims to enhance solar energy facilities, including EV charging and battery storage systems, to support strategic decision-making in future projects. The procurement stage has successfully reached the contract award phase, with SYSTRA LIMITED, a large-scale supplier, being the appointed contractor. The contract, valued at £220,000, commenced on 19th May 2026 and is set to run until 18th September 2026, with a potential three-month extension available.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for firms involved in project management consultancy services, particularly those focusing on renewable energy applications, to showcase their capabilities and establish themselves as key players in the expanding solar energy sector. Businesses that specialise in sustainable infrastructure development and possess the capacity to handle large-scale projects will find this contract appealing, as it requires developing scalable approaches for replicable solar energy solutions across York and North Yorkshire. SMEs with expertise in similar domains had substantial participation during the tendering process, indicating a favourable environment for smaller enterprises to compete and grow within this industry.
