## Summary

The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust has established a National Framework Agreement for Carbon and Energy Infrastructure Upgrades, which aims to provide low carbon energy efficient infrastructure services across the public sector in the UK. The agreement, published on 27 December 2017, is currently at the award stage and is valued at £100 million. The contract period extends from 12 March 2018 to 11 March 2024, with the framework available for use by various public bodies. The procurement method used is an open procedure, and the tender period concluded on 9 February 2018.

This framework agreement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in energy efficiency and infrastructure upgrades, especially those capable of providing durable solutions with guaranteed cost effectiveness and sustainability. Suppliers of relevant services, including energy performance contracting, renewable energy solutions, and carbon reduction initiatives, would find themselves well-positioned to compete. This contract is particularly suited for larger organisations, enhancing their visibility and engagement within the public sector, ultimately facilitating business growth through long-term partnerships.

## Notice

A framework agreement has been established for capable suppliers to provide low carbon energy efficient infrastructure services, improvements and upgrades to existing or new facilities in the public sector in the UK. These upgrades should offer client public bodies guaranteed resilience valued through reduced running costs, reduced energy consumption and reduced carbon emissions. Proposals should guarantee minimum levels of savings over the period of each contract let under the framework which may be for 15 to 31 years long, or the life of the plant installed ( if relevant ). This framework agreement will be available for use by the entire UK public sector. Please see http://coch-cps.co.uk/our-services/our-frameworks/ for further details.
