## Notice

The final date and time for the submission of bids is Tuesday 7th January 2025 at 11:00. DO NOT apply directly to the buyer. All tender information MUST be submitted through the Jaggaer eSourcing Portal. Brief Description of Requirement The Climate Change Committee (CCC) is looking to produce supplementary advice for a sub-national audience to accompany CB7 and CCRA4. The CCC requires a supplier to carry out qualitative and quantitative analysis, as well as stakeholder engagement to collate the evidence to inform this advice. The research and advice should: * Be aimed at a sub-national (regional, city, local) actors. (Suppliers may should include national policy actors where national policy relates to sub-national delivery). * Frame carbon budget pathways and climate change risk in a relevant and accessible format for sub-national actors. * Aid strategy and practical decision-making on mitigation and adaptation. * Influence and support the delivery of CB7 and CCRA4. * Take an archetype approach to produce indicative mitigation pathways for a defined set sample of archetype areas. We propose an extension task to do the same for our adaptation pathways. We are proposing that the project is split into two phases due to the difference in timings of CCC analysis for CB7 and CCRA4. There will therefore be an opportunity for the project to be extended to utilise outputs of our CCRA4 analysis to produce indicative pathways for adaptation and more detailed advice around sub-national prioritisation for managing climate risk.
