## Summary

The National Highways organisation has awarded a contract for the project titled "T0518 Infrastructure Client Group - Concrete Decarbonisation Accelerator". This project falls under the industry category of Development consultancy services. The procurement method used was selective, with a procurement stage of an award. The contract period runs from 1st November 2023 to 30th April 2024, with a contract value of £184,481.77. The tender period ended on 26th October 2023.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses involved in development consultancy services to participate. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are suitable for this contract. The workstream aims to accelerate the decarbonisation of concrete in the infrastructure sectors, with a focus on identifying recommended changes and actions to drive this transformation. Businesses interested in sustainability and concrete decarbonisation initiatives would be well-suited to compete for this contract.

## Notice

The Concrete Decarbonisation Accelerator workstream is designed to help accelerate the decarbonisation of concrete across the infrastructure sectors. Concrete is a commonly used material across the infrastructure sectors for multiple purposes (use cases) and its substantial contribution to carbon emissions is well-established. Through the undertaking of the Concrete Decarbonisation Accelerator, National Highways, in collaboration with the other members of the group will be able to help strengthen and build on the actions and outputs contained with our concrete material roadmap including: 1. The identification of a specific list of recommended changes and actions that, if adopted by individual client organisations together (including National Highways), would better align approaches to concrete decarbonisation and help lead and accelerate the pace of change within the sector; 2. Establish a demand forecast for concrete withing the Group, rather than relying on supplier forecasts. This will help understanding likely demand and range estimates more clearly and will enable National Highways (and other client organisations) to more easily identify specific changes (behavioural and technical) to accelerate concrete decarbonisation; and 3. Explore the initial potential for a bespoke carbon offset or inset mechanism that joins together and targets future co-investment in concrete decarbonisation by infrastructure clients to accelerate concrete decarbonisation, with formal government backing.
