## Summary

The Liverpool City Region Combined Authority has recently completed a procurement process for "Technical Advisory Services- Marine Modelling." This project falls under the research and development services and related consultancy services sector. The work is focused on assessing tidal range energy schemes in the Mersey and Liverpool Bay region, with a contract period spanning from 19 October 2020 to 25 January 2021. The open procurement method was employed, with a total contract value of £78,582. Key dates include the end of the tender period on 5 October 2020 and the announcement of the awarded contract on 30 October 2020.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses skilled in 2D hydrodynamic and wave modelling, particularly those specialised in environmental consultancy and energy assessment. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to engage in similar opportunities, as their expertise can align well with the needs of initiatives focused on sustainable energy solutions and environmental impact assessments within the North West region.

## Notice

The Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA) is looking to procure a technical advisor to carry out 2D hydrodynamic and wave modelling of three potential tidal range energy schemes (coastal lagoon, offshore lagoon and barrage) in the Mersey and Liverpool Bay region. The purpose of this work is to provide an assessment of annual energy generation and hydro-environmental and hydro-morphological impact simulations in 2-D for the key design layouts being considered and including: salinity, key water quality constituents and sediment transport processes (linked to bed shear). The work will involve a high-level review of 2D modelling work carried out to date and comparisons to these results. The work is expected to run over 3 months. Full details of the opportunity are provided in the Specification.
