## Summary

The Oxford City Council is conducting a procurement process titled "Provision of EPC Surveys in Council Houses," focusing on the delivery of Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) for approximately 400 homes within the local authority. This undertaking falls within the industry category of energy-management services and is currently at the award stage, having been published on 16th November 2016, with a contract start date of 4th December 2016 and an end date of 31st March 2017. The procurement method used is an open procedure, with a total contract value of £20,000. The tender submission deadline was set for 30th November 2016.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in energy assessment and management services, particularly those that can provide DEA assessors. Businesses with expertise in conducting surveys, generating EPCs, and understanding regulatory requirements would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. The engagement involves providing a high volume of surveys, which necessitates trained assessors capable of meeting client expectations and deadlines effectively.

## Notice

The Council needs DEA assessors for the provision of good quality Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) across 400 of Oxford City Council's homes. In order to get this work done by the end of February, it is anticipated that this will require 5 assessors doing around 80 surveys. The project will require 2 hours initial training then: * The assessors will be given a geographical area of Oxford to work in. * Tenants will be advised that surveys will take place and the name of relevant assessors by letter at least one week in advance * All assessors will be provided with a letter of authorisation from a named Council officer to show they are working on their behalf * All assessors will be expected to carry the letter and show an identification card * Assessors will be provided with a set of lists of Council properties in a selected area and details. In all cases one EPC will need to be provided from each list. * Where EPCs are carried out and are E, F or Gs, further EPCs need to be sampled from the same list to see if these are the same rating. If it looks likely that the whole street/area is this lower rating, assessors will be required to access and provide EPCs for as many of these as possible. * Where no access is possible from a given list, the assessor must try to gain access out of standard working hours then contact Debbie Haynes urgently in order for Council support.
