OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Energy Saving Trust Ltd is seeking suppliers to assess applications to the Voluntary Energy Redress Scheme, which supports charity and community groups. The work covers reviewing applications, scoring them, taking assessment notes and, where needed, discussing applications with fellow assessors. This is an energy consultancy and application assessment service for delivery across the UK. The requirement is arranged as a framework for assessors, supporting Energy Saving Trust’s role in orchestrating the scheme on behalf of Ofgem. It will suit organisations or independent assessment teams with experience of evaluating grant or funding applications, applying consistent scoring methods and producing clear written records. Suppliers should also be able to work collaboratively with other assessors when discussion is required.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission in English. Bids were due by 17 August 2026 at 12:00, followed by bid opening at 12:30. The evaluation and award period was scheduled to start at 12:30 on the same day. The estimated contract period is 12 October 2026 to 31 March 2027, with the possibility of three further 12-month extensions. The estimated value is £400,000. It is a single-lot framework with a maximum of 20 participants. Technical expertise carries a published 70% weighting and price 20%. Bidders must provide staff names and qualifications, may not submit variants, and bids must remain valid until 17 November 2026.

This opportunity is suited to suppliers with strong technical expertise in assessing applications, particularly where decisions must be supported by transparent scoring and well-structured notes. Relevant capability includes reviewing evidence from charity and community organisations, applying assessment criteria consistently, explaining scoring decisions and identifying issues for further discussion. The requirement also favours teams that can coordinate with fellow assessors and contribute constructively to joint discussions when an application needs clarification or wider consideration. Suppliers should be able to nominate the staff who will deliver the work and demonstrate their professional qualifications. Organisations with established assessment procedures, quality controls and experience delivering recurring funding or grant assessment services are likely to be well placed to compete.
