This initiative is part of a £4.9 million investment aimed at enhancing energy efficiency in low-income households across England. The procurement is currently in the tender stage, with submissions closing on 15 August 2022. The contract will commence on 1 September 2022 and is set to run until 31 March 2023. This open procedure is categorised under construction work, specifically focusing on energy efficiency improvements. This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in construction, energy consultancy, and environmental services. Firms that specialise in insulation installation, non-fossil fuel heating systems, or retrofit coordination would be particularly well-suited to participate. By competing for this contract, businesses can contribute to the government’s efforts to reduce fuel poverty and carbon emissions while potentially expanding their client base within the growing green economy. ## Notice The SW Competition is a single funding opportunity which brings together two fuel poverty schemes. Through the SW Competition, Government aims to save households money, reduce fuel poverty, cut carbon, and support the aims of the Prime Minister's 10 Point plan for a Green Industrial Revolution. The SW Competition provides funding to upgrade homes both on and off the mains gas grid and is comprised of PS286.8m for low-income households heated by mains gas through a third phase of LAD, and of PS152.2m for low-income households off the gas grid through HUG 1, with a further c. PS67m made available in April 2022, totalling c. PS219m of investment in HUG 1. 7. The SW Competition will provide funding to improve low energy performance off grid and on gas grid homes in England by installing Eligible Measures. A competition was launched on 16 June 2021 offering LAs and Local Energy Hubs the opportunity to apply for funding. Upgrades delivered through the SW Competition should be completed by the delivery deadline of 31 March 2023 This agreement concerns the installation of insulation and other energy efficiency measures, non-fossil fuel heating and micro-generation measures in the homes of households who are either on low incomes and are identified as suffering from fuel poverty1. The Delivery Organisation is responsible for managing the end-to-end Customer Journey, which includes the requirements set out at 3.1 below The Delivery Organisation will be required to use their existing supply chain or to put in place a supply chain to deliver the Services set out above. This may involve sub-contracting for Assessors, Installers, Retrofit Coordinators/ Inspectors and other specialist services (Retrofit Designers, Architects, Structural Engineers, Asbestos identification and removal). All will need to be compliant with PAS2030:2019 requirements and registered with the appropriate organisations, MCS, Trustmark etc. and work under the PAS2035 process where this is a requirement of the PAS. Additional information: The primary purpose of the SW Competition is to raise the energy efficiency rating of low-income and low EPC rated homes (those with D, E, F or G) on the gas grid and off the gas grid with an aim of upgrading homes to a target energy efficiency rating of EPC C, or EPC D where this is not possible This funding will also support low-income households with the transition to low-carbon heating. We expect the SW Competition to result in the following outcomes Tackle fuel poverty by increasing low-income homes' energy efficiency rating while reducing their energy bills - a key principle of the SW Competition: Protecting Vulnerable Households in England Strategy 2021. Deliver cost effective carbon savings to carbon budgets and progress towards the UK's target for net zero by 2050. Support clean growth and ensure homes are thermally comfortable, efficient, and well-adapted to climate change. Support economic resilience and a green recovery in response to the economic impacts of Covid-19. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c1dd4005-93ea-4860-8c20-5a646497cdba | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 18 Jul 2022 | | Submission deadline | 15 Aug 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Aug 2022 - 31 Mar 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £4,900,000 | | 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 | WEST OF ENGLAND COMBINED AUTHORITY | | Locality | BRISTOL | | Post town | Bristol | | Postcode | BS1 6ER | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK5 West of England | | ITL 3 | TLK51 Bristol, City of | | Local authority | Bristol, City of | | Electoral ward | Lawrence Hill | | Westminster constituency | Bristol East | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work - 71220000 - Architectural design services - 71322200 - Pipeline-design services - 71322300 - Bridge-design services - 71322400 - Dam-design services - 90650000 - Asbestos removal services ## Release History - 18 Jul 2022 at 15:23 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c1dd4005-93ea-4860-8c20-5a646497cdba ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c1dd4005-93ea-4860-8c20-5a646497cdba 18th July 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://www.westofengland-ca.org.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
