This research and experimental development services contract, valued at £50,000, is located in London, United Kingdom. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with the tender period set to close on 17 February 2017. The contract is expected to begin on 27 February 2017 and conclude by the end of March 2017. The tender follows an open procedure, allowing a wide range of bidders to participate. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses that specialise in research and development related to climate change and sustainability. Companies engaged in environmental consulting, carbon emissions assessment, or developing low-carbon technologies would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. By providing expert insights and innovative solutions that align with the Committee's goals for greenhouse gas removal, these businesses can leverage this opportunity for growth and establish a foothold in the expanding market of climate-related services. ## Notice The CCC indicator framework The CCC monitors progress towards meeting carbon budgets and the 2050 target using an indicator framework, first set out in our October 2009 Progress Report to Parliament. This framework contains future trajectories for a range of measurable quantities linked to UK emissions: * Headline indicators (greenhouse gas emissions, emissions intensity and energy demand); * Implementation indicators for specific measures (e.g. additional low-carbon power generation capacity, purchases of electric cars, roll-out of loft insulation); * Forward indicators to measure progress in advance of implementation (e.g. power generation investments at planning and construction stages); * Policy milestones for an appropriate framework enabling future implementation of measures (e.g. legislation of new efficiency targets for cars). The full set of current indicators across the main sources of emissions is available in technical annexes here: https://www.theccc.org.uk/publication/meeting-carbon-budgets-2016-progress-report-to-parliament/. Our indicators follow our current best projection of the technologies and behaviours required to cost-effectively meet carbon budgets and the 2050 target. However, there is uncertainty over the rates at which technologies will develop, their future costs, and how people will change their behaviour. Analysis of the required changes is also more developed in some areas than others. This means some sectors and measures have more detailed indicator sets than others. It also means indicators are not prescriptive (carbon budgets could be met by underperforming in some indicators, while outperforming others) nor exhaustive. We are currently updating our indicators in advance of our 2017 Progress Report, to reflect: * Updated CCC scenarios (available at https://www.theccc.org.uk/publication/the-fifth-carbon-budget-the-next-step-towards-a-low-carbon-economy/) which informed the level of the fifth carbon budget, legislated by Parliament last July. * Our October report on UK Climate Action following the Paris Agreement (available at https://www.theccc.org.uk/publication/uk-action-following-paris/). A key additional conclusion was the need for a Government strategy to develop options for removing greenhouse gases from the air. Additional information: Bids should be sent in time in time for receipt by 1pm on 17 February. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b3585e40-ec1c-4697-8765-a76cd00e5a39 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 24 Jan 2017 | | Submission deadline | 17 Feb 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 27 Feb 2017 - 31 Mar 2017 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £50,000 | | 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 - 73100000 - Research and experimental development services ## Release History - 24 Jan 2017 at 11:39 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b3585e40-ec1c-4697-8765-a76cd00e5a39 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b3585e40-ec1c-4697-8765-a76cd00e5a39 24th January 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/efe618e8-b662-44a7-bd60-917f4769041a Specification - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/34eef7a1-56b6-400f-88a1-4b9e0ba3adab ITT - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/dda2f7b6-5bab-46f4-b536-7f0020d34985 T&C's ## Notice URLs - https://www.theccc.org.uk/publication/meeting-carbon-budgets-2016-progress-report-to-parliament/ - https://www.theccc.org.uk/publication/the-fifth-carbon-budget-the-next-step-towards-a-low-carbon-economy/ - https://www.theccc.org.uk/publication/uk-action-following-paris/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
