UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero commissioned advisory services to design the structures for its Portfolio Function. The purpose is to support delivery of the Secretary of State’s priorities for Public Control and Delivering Clean Power. The requirement concerns portfolio function design rather than the delivery of energy infrastructure itself, and is classified as project management consultancy services. The work is intended to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The procurement was for an individual adviser, so the requirement is centred on specialist advisory input to develop an organisational or operating structure for portfolio activity within a central government department.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded. The department used a direct award below the applicable threshold without competition. Stat-Edgy LLP was selected for the single lot, with an award recorded as active. The contract was signed on 8 September 2026 and runs from 8 September to 17 November 2026. Its value is £61,250 excluding VAT, or £73,500 including VAT. The award date is not separately recorded. The evaluation route was therefore a non-competitive direct award rather than an open tender, and the procurement has proceeded to an active contract with the selected supplier.

For a supplier considering comparable work in future, this requirement indicates demand for an individual adviser who can design a portfolio function within central government and connect its structure to ministerial priorities on public control and clean power. Credible capability would include portfolio function or operating-model design, project management consultancy, and the ability to turn strategic priorities into workable organisational structures. Suppliers should be able to provide focused advisory input rather than infrastructure delivery, and understand the public-sector context in which portfolio decisions and clean-energy priorities are developed. The awarded supplier is an SME, showing that this type of specialist assignment can suit a small consultancy with a targeted advisory offer.
