The procurement method used was an open procedure (below threshold). The contract has a value of £88,950, starting on February 6, 2023, and ending on May 15, 2023. The tender period ended on January 29, 2023. This opportunity could be suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and businesses providing goods in the field of climate risk assessment. The awarded tender by The Committee On Climate Change for the project involves reviewing existing spatial modelling tools and datasets to assess climate risks at a spatial scale in the UK. This contract could be particularly beneficial for businesses specializing in climate risk assessment, research and development, and consultancy services. The tender process was initiated to inform the forthcoming fourth UK Climate Change Risk Assessment (CCRA4), scheduled for completion by June 2026, with a focus on understanding and mitigating climate risks geographically across the UK. ## Notice 1 Background The Climate Change Committee The Climate Change Committee (CCC) was set up as part of the Climate Change Act. The CCC is an independent body that advises both on reducing emissions in the UK and adapting to the climate changes in the UK. The CCC's full range of past reports are available here: http://www.theccc.org.uk/reports/. The UK Climate Change Risk Assessment Under the Climate Change Act 2008 (section 57), an assessment of the risks facing the UK from the current and predicted impact of climate change is required every 5 years. The CCC is responsible for providing independent advice to the UK Government to inform that assessment. The Committee has recently provided its advice to the UK Government on the risks and opportunities facing the UK from current and future climate change as part of the third Climate Change Risk Assessment (CCRA3) - this was summarised in its Independent Assessment of UK Climate Risk which was published in summer 2021. The fourth UK Climate Change Risk Assessment (CCRA4) is due for completion by June 2026. CCRA4 will assess climate change risks to the UK using a more spatially defined approach than previous CCRAs, giving an assessment of the spatial distribution of climate risks across the UK and a more localised view of adaptation needs. In order to assess climate risks at a spatial scale in CCRA4, the CCC are seeking to identify existing spatial modelling tools, initiatives and datasets that can be used to assess the spatial distribution of climate risks across the economy and the natural environment. 2 Aims and Objectives The aim of this project is to review the current landscape of spatial modelling of climate risks to the UK. This project will seek to identify existing models capable of UK-wide spatially explicit climate risk assessment within different sectors and ongoing modelling initiatives producing spatially explicit outputs relevant to UK climate risk assessment. The purpose of this exercise is to understand what tools and existing simulations could be used to inform spatial risk assessment in CCRA4. **** See specification for more details **** Additional information: Please note the change in closing date from 5pm on Wednesday 25th January 2023 to 11:59pm 29th January 2023 ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/01e179f4-c33e-4302-a0d5-caefda20932d | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 22 Feb 2023 | | Submission deadline | 29 Jan 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 2 Feb 2023 | | Contract period | 6 Feb 2023 - 15 May 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £100,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £88,950 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE COMMITTEE ON CLIMATE CHANGE | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1H 0ET | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | RICARDO-AEA | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 22 Feb 2023 at 08:58 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/01e179f4-c33e-4302-a0d5-caefda20932d - 17 Jan 2023 at 14:59 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/21cf60de-d4cb-4a65-b42a-346990f9d418 - 5 Jan 2023 at 15:31 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/21cf60de-d4cb-4a65-b42a-346990f9d418 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/01e179f4-c33e-4302-a0d5-caefda20932d 22nd February 2023 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/21cf60de-d4cb-4a65-b42a-346990f9d418 17th January 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/6009a86b-3072-4814-b86f-1493c94501fa - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/de427fdd-2736-4380-8e31-261da0c552ee - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/812c9c62-df65-4257-8d5c-636125e9b47d ## Notice URLs - http://www.theccc.org.uk/reports/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
