The project involves reviewing previous research, updating it with new analysis, and identifying opportunities for UK Aid to support ICF strategy development. The procurement method is an open procedure with a total value of £95,000. The contract period runs from 29th March 2024 to 19th July 2024. The deadline for tender submissions is 8th March 2024, emphasising an active engagement in the services industry. This tender offers opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialised in research and development services related to climate change mitigation. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are well-suited to compete. Potential bidders should take note of the specific delivery addresses, including various locations such as British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, and the United Kingdom. By engaging with this tender, businesses can contribute to global climate action by providing valuable research and consultancy services to aid in ICF mitigation strategies. ## Notice In 2020 a research and analysis report 'BEIS ICF Mitigation Investment Options' was completed to provide the Department for Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) with robust evidence to feed into the strategic approach to deploying UK International Climate Finance (ICF) in support of global climate mitigation. It assessed 15 mitigation areas in depth using set criteria and across target countries using a combination of an integrated assessment model (IMAGE), literature assessment, expert review and workshops. This fed into the BEIS ICF umbrella business case for ICF 3 and has also been used by ICF programmes to help inform programming decisions. The Department for Energy Security & Net Zero (DESNZ) is responsible for this portfolio following the machinery of government change in February 2023. DESNZ wishes to commission a project to review the previous Mitigation Options Research and underlying analysis, and update it with the latest robust, quantitative and qualitative analysis which can be used to identify opportunities where there is a clear role for UK Aid specifically and to directly support ICF mitigation strategy development.
