The research will explore these stakeholders' views, awareness and response to the policy, as well as the type of measures installed, observed costs and benefits, energy efficiency and carbon impacts and the effectiveness of enforcement processes. The insights produced will support future policy development. The process related research questions will largely be addressed through interviews with landlords, tenants and local authorities. The impact will be evaluated through a survey with landlords and tenants, as well as secondary data analysis of non-domestic EPC, the MEES Exemptions Register and sub-national gas and electricity consumption data. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c26135de-03b4-45d8-bbae-fe31922ac809 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Dynamic | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Call-off from a dynamic purchasing system | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 2 Mar 2026 | | Submission deadline | 1 Nov 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 2 Dec 2024 | | Contract period | 15 Nov 2024 - 17 Apr 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £329,848 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £354,318 | | 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 | DESNZ | | Locality | SWINDON | | Post town | Not specified | | Postcode | SN1 2FF | | Country | Not specified | | ITL 1 | Not specified | | ITL 2 | Not specified | | ITL 3 | Not specified | | Local authority | Not specified | | Electoral ward | Not specified | | Westminster constituency | Not specified | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | TECHNOPOLIS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79300000 - Market and economic research; polling and statistics ## Release History - 2 Mar 2026 at 11:47 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c26135de-03b4-45d8-bbae-fe31922ac809 - 19 Dec 2025 at 09:02 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c26135de-03b4-45d8-bbae-fe31922ac809 - 9 Dec 2024 at 12:52 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c26135de-03b4-45d8-bbae-fe31922ac809 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c26135de-03b4-45d8-bbae-fe31922ac809 2nd March 2026 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d0fd9548-47ac-4ee3-8134-ff88818cc36b n/a ## Notice URLs - http://www.uksbs.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
