Located in Salford, England, the process is currently in the planning stage with an engagement end date set for 11th November 2022. This engagement aims to discuss potential opportunities under the HUG Consumer Led Route scheme and provides a chance for interested suppliers to express their interest by contacting adeolu.gidado@beis.gov.uk. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specializing in grant administration, consultancy, domestic energy efficiency assessment, and installation services to engage with the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy. Suitable for small and voluntary sector enterprises, this market engagement activity seeks various service providers capable of delivering components of the HUG CLR scheme on a national or regional basis. Interested parties can explore the potential implications and opportunities of this scheme by participating in the market engagement events commencing from 8th October 2022. ## Notice The purpose of this Prior Information Notice (PIN) is to alert potential suppliers to an opportunity in relation to multiple potential requirements across the full range of grant administration, consultancy, domestic energy efficiency assessment and measure installation services. A new Home Upgrade Grant (HUG) Consumer Led Route (CLR) is being developed by BEIS as an additional delivery route to the existing HUG Scheme. HUG was funded with PS950m in 2021 and the funding is to be allocated across the existing HUG local authority (LA) route and a new HUG Consumer Led Route (CLR). It is our working assumption that PS100m will be allocated to HUG CLR during FY24/25, with the remaining funding being allocated to HUG 2 (second wave of the existing LA route). The CLR 's objectives include : - Offering an application route where customers can apply to HUG directly providing full geographic coverage across England. - Supporting preparations for the Off Gas Grid Regulations (OGG). A universal route for low-income households will be required from 2026 when the regulations will require that fossil fuel boilers can only be replaced with low carbon alternatives. - Creating digital infrastructure in preparation for a broader offer for consumers to apply for energy efficiency and/or low carbon heating. - BEIS wish to engage with as diverse a range of potential service providers as possible, includ-ing, but not limited to providers who have the capability to deliver : I. End to end HUG CLR delivery; including Administration, Assessment and Installa-tion. II. Any combination of one or two of the three constituent parts of the end-to-end de-livery; Administration or Assessment or Installation III. On a national or regional basis. To ensure that the HUG CLR scheme delivers the above stated objective, BEIS have decided to commence market engagement activities to better understand the various supply markets. This engagement will be an opportunity for potential service providers and contractors to discuss the implications and opportunities which this new scheme represents with the BEIS Policy, delivery and commercial team. There will also be the opportunity to discover more from BEIS about BEIS wider scheme targeted at achieving net zero and energy efficiency in the country. Supplier/Contractors/Consultants interested in being included in market engagement events commencing from the 8th of October 2022 should send an expression of interest to adeolu.gidado@beis.gov.uk. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c03654cc-6ba4-4825-9e6f-7aa188c86b24 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Oct 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 11 Nov 2022 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | DEPARTMENT FOR BUSINESS, ENERGY & INDUSTRIAL STRATEGY | | Locality | SALFORD | | Post town | Manchester | | Postcode | M3 5BS | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD3 Greater Manchester | | ITL 3 | TLD34 Greater Manchester South West | | Local authority | Salford | | Electoral ward | Blackfriars & Trinity | | Westminster constituency | Salford | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 09 - Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy - 45 - Construction work - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 09300000 - Electricity, heating, solar and nuclear energy - 45262640 - Environmental improvement works - 71314310 - Heating engineering services for buildings ## Release History - 12 Oct 2022 at 10:55 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c03654cc-6ba4-4825-9e6f-7aa188c86b24 - 12 Oct 2022 at 10:52 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d078e66c-6927-4e25-bde5-0c455bf0e12a ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c03654cc-6ba4-4825-9e6f-7aa188c86b24 12th October 2022 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d078e66c-6927-4e25-bde5-0c455bf0e12a 12th October 2022 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
