UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority is seeking a lead financial adviser for the Greater South East Net Zero Hub (GSENZH). The supplier will provide a named adviser to act as an informed client for the Hub and its project stakeholders, bringing financial advice and subject-matter expertise to the work. The role focuses on developing and delivering investment strategies. The named individual is expected to remain consistent throughout the contract, making continuity of advice and stakeholder relationships central to the requirement. This is financial and financial management consultancy, rather than a purchase of goods or construction work. Delivery is in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition below the procurement threshold. Bids could be submitted electronically, with the deadline set for 12 November 2026 at 12:00 noon. The contract period is scheduled to run from 1 December 2026 to 31 March 2027, with an optional renewal that may extend the end date to 31 March 2028. The published estimated value is recorded as zero, so it does not provide a usable indication of the contract’s commercial value. The requirement is a single lot. Evaluation is weighted 80% on quality and 20% on price; the quality weighting makes the proposed advisory approach and relevant expertise especially important to the assessment.

This opportunity is suited to financial advisory firms or independent advisers able to supply a suitably qualified, named lead adviser and keep that person assigned consistently for the engagement. Strong candidates will bring deep knowledge of investment strategy and extensive experience developing and delivering investment strategies, as well as the ability to advise as an intelligent client and work effectively with project stakeholders. The single-adviser requirement favours suppliers able to offer continuity rather than rotate personnel. Quality carries substantially more weight than price, so bidders should be ready to demonstrate the strength and relevance of the proposed adviser’s expertise and delivery approach. The procurement does not identify specific professional accreditations or minimum capacity requirements.
