Summary of the contracting process

Fife College procured a framework for two contractors to design and deliver high-quality, engaging and interactive workshops on net zero and renewable energy. The programme is intended for a wide range of audiences: college students, school pupils, college staff, and community and public groups, including adults and children. This is an education and training services requirement, with the main classification covering vocational training. Delivery is for Fife College in the Fife area, Scotland. The buyer is Fife College, an education body based in Dunfermline. The requirement combines subject knowledge in net zero and renewable energy with the ability to create and deliver practical, accessible learning sessions for audiences with differing ages, backgrounds and levels of prior knowledge.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through an open procedure. One lot was used, with two contractors appointed: Bright Green Hydrogen and The Verdancy Group Ltd. The contract value is £100,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract was signed on 26 August 2026. The framework contract period is 720 days, with two possible 12-month extensions. The tender deadline was 9 July 2026 at 12:00, and the bid opening and award process began at 13:00 the same day. Two bids were received, both from SMEs and submitted electronically. Bids had to be in English and remain valid for 90 days. Bidders could not submit variants, and the procedure required the names and qualifications of delivery staff.

This award shows that Fife College buys specialist education and engagement services linking net zero and renewable energy with skills development. A credible future supplier would need demonstrable expertise in these subjects and the teaching capability to turn them into high-quality, interactive workshops rather than purely technical consultancy. Experience should cover delivery to mixed audiences, including further-education learners, school pupils, college employees, adults and children in community or public settings. Suppliers should be able to provide suitably qualified named staff, manage delivery across the Fife College environment, and operate as part of a small contractor framework. The two appointed SMEs indicate that focused specialist providers can compete, either independently or through a team combining renewable-energy knowledge, curriculum design and inclusive public engagement.
