## Summary

The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) has concluded the award for the project titled "Evaluation of the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme phase 3" under the industry category of research and development services. Located in Swindon, England, DESNZ completed the procurement by conducting a selective call-off from the CCS RM6126 Research & Insights Dynamic Purchasing System. The award went to ICF Consulting Services Ltd, a large-scale supplier based in London, on 23rd July 2025. The contract began on 4th August 2025 and will run until 30th June 2028, with the work covering various regions including the UK, British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, and beyond.

This procurement creates significant opportunities for businesses involved in research and consultancy services, particularly those specialising in energy management insights. The project focuses on evaluating the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme to provide a long-term assessment of its effectiveness, which is crucial for post-implementation analysis. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to engage with similar opportunities within dynamic purchasing systems owing to the suitability criterion accommodating them. This contract illustrates how participating in selective procurement systems can foster business growth by aligning with government-backed energy efficiency initiatives.
