Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Energy Security & Net Zero is procuring services for Climate Ambition Support Alliance Phase 3 (CASA3). This is an international climate and foreign economic-aid-related service programme, focused on strengthening the capacity and capability of climate-vulnerable developing countries. The work is intended to help these countries participate effectively in international climate negotiations and engage as progressive, inclusive and rules-based voices within the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and associated multilateral forums. Delivery is across the United Kingdom and developing-country partner contexts, with the department acting as the public-sector buyer. The opportunity is therefore relevant to organisations working in international climate policy, climate finance, development assistance, negotiation support or related capacity-building services.

The procurement has reached tender: the department invited offers through an open procedure. It is a single lot for services, with an estimated value of £8,400,000 excluding VAT and £10,080,000 including VAT. Questions could be submitted until 16 September 2026 at 5:00pm. Offers were due by 6 October 2026 at 5:00pm and are submitted electronically through Jaggaer, in English. The contract is scheduled to run from 4 January 2027 to 5 January 2029, with an extension described as two years plus two years and a maximum end date of 4 January 2030. Evaluation is weighted 85% to technical quality and 15% to commercial price. The award decision was due by 5 November 2026.

This opportunity suits organisations able to design and deliver international climate and development programmes that build institutional capacity in climate-vulnerable developing countries. Relevant providers are likely to include consultancies, international development organisations, climate-policy specialists, research bodies and partnerships with experience supporting governments or other public institutions in international negotiations. The requirement’s focus on the UNFCCC and associated multilateral forums favours teams with credible knowledge of global climate governance, negotiation processes and the needs of developing-country partners. Suppliers should be able to provide technically strong, inclusive and practical support, and to work across international stakeholder groups. Because technical quality carries most of the evaluation weighting, organisations with a demonstrably strong delivery approach should be well placed to compete.
