This tender, classified under Research and Development Services, focuses on climate change issues and is located in London, United Kingdom. The procurement method is an open procedure with a total value of £160,000. The tender period ends on 17th September 2018, and the contract is expected to commence on 8th October 2018, lasting until 18th January 2020. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in research, consultancy, and behavioural studies related to climate change and environmental risks. Suitable contenders include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that possess expertise in climate adaptation strategies, behavioural analysis, and related fields. Businesses that can address the identified evidence gaps from previous climate reports may find this a valuable chance to contribute to important national adaptation programmes and potentially grow within the public sector. ## Notice The second CCRA (CCRA2) was published in 2017 and was supported by a comprehensive Evidence Report from the Adaptation Sub-Committee (ASC). Defra and the devolved administrations are in the process of drafting updated national adaptation programmes in response to the risks and opportunities set out in the report. The third CCRA will be published by the government in January 2022, and Defra have asked the ASC to produce an accompanying Evidence Report by summer 2021.To inform this Evidence Report the ASC are commissioning six research projects, funded by Defra, the devolved administrations and the research councils (NERC, ESRC and EPSRC). The ASC has been engaging with relevant stakeholders (e.g. researchers, funders, academies) with a view to addressing key evidence gaps from the CCRA2 report on a variety of timescales. To address one of these evidence gaps, this research project will look to improve the understanding of behaviour change in response to the impacts of climate change. Behaviour change could affect the extent to which climate change risks and opportunities emerge, and/or the resulting residual risks or unrealised opportunities. Therefore understanding this is key to assessing the biggest risks and opportunities to the UK from climate change. The potential for, and ways to enable behaviour change, are not well researched for climate change risks that directly affect the public, such as flooding, water scarcity and risks from hot weather. Therefore there is a need to identify the areas within the CCRA where behaviour change is most likely to impact climate change risks and opportunities. The ASC has already identified some key areas, set out below, for which this research should explore behavioural responses and seek to understand the factors that influence behaviour and decision-making *** See specification for more details ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5132e7ad-fa66-4e39-9433-66f744d81e99 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 31 Jul 2018 | | Submission deadline | 17 Sep 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 7 Oct 2018 - 18 Jan 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £160,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE COMMITTEE ON CLIMATE CHANGE | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1W 8NR | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI33 Kensington & Chelsea and Hammersmith & Fulham | | Local authority | Kensington and Chelsea | | Electoral ward | Royal Hospital | | Westminster constituency | Chelsea and Fulham | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 31 Jul 2018 at 10:07 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5132e7ad-fa66-4e39-9433-66f744d81e99 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5132e7ad-fa66-4e39-9433-66f744d81e99 31st July 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/b6f84956-5572-479b-b72d-9c1f94a6c33b ITT - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/51c881d5-9089-488b-9586-a11b7e4b3dd8 Specification - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/641f0cd1-4969-43bd-926b-ae7c60641050 T&C's ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
