This service aims to assist residents of Oldham, located in the North West of the United Kingdom, who are struggling with heating their homes. Currently in the tender stage, the process was published on 7th June 2018 and will close on 22nd June 2018. The contract is classified under financial and insurance services but also encompasses health, social work, and community services. The procurement method is an open procedure, with the contract period expected to commence on 2nd July 2018 and end on 31st March 2019. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on support services, particularly those that specialise in financial advice, energy efficiency improvements, and community engagement. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-positioned to compete, especially those with experience in direct client engagement and the ability to generate referrals. Successful bidders will not only contribute to alleviating fuel poverty but also expand their market presence and enhance their service offerings in the local area. ## Notice Warm Homes Oldham is an Award Winning Scheme which is now continuing for a sixth year of delivery into 2018/19 to help residents of Oldham who are struggling to heat their homes. The scheme is a joint funded project by Oldham Council, Oldham CCG and Oldham Housing Investment Partnership. The aim of the project is to help people out of fuel poverty (spending more than 10% of their income on heating their home) in Oldham. This can be done in a variety of ways including physical improvements to the home, energy efficiency advice, help with energy switching and provision of income maximisation. Engie (previously called Keepmoat Regeneration Ltd) are the main delivery agents for this work in Oldham, however we require specialist support to deliver the income maximisation part of the project. Initial home visits and assessments are to be made by Engie and then referrals made onto the support service for further follow on help for those that need it. During quieter months the provider will be expected to help generate referrals through their own networks to help the Warm Homes project to meet their targets for 2018/19. Physical improvements (energy efficiency improvements like boilers/insulation) are delivered by Engie and they also access ECO funding on behalf of the resident.
