## Summary

The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) is inviting tenders for the provision of services related to the role of Licensee Microgeneration Certification Scheme, with a total contract value of £280,000. This procurement falls under the category of 'Administration services' and is based in the UK. The tender period concluded on 20th November 2017, and the contract has been awarded and is active, starting from 1st February 2018 until 30th April 2018. The procurement method used for this initiative has been classified as 'Other'.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses operating in the renewable energy sector, particularly those providing administrative and certification services. Companies specialising in quality assurance, standards development, or microgeneration technologies would be ideally placed to compete. By participating in this tender, businesses could enhance their service offerings and contribute to the vital growth of the microgeneration industry, benefiting from the ongoing government incentive schemes associated with renewable energy.

## Notice

BEIS needs to have a contingency within the existing contract for the continuation of the current services provided by Gemserv as the administrator of the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) for three months. Two government incentive schemes (Feed-in Tariff Scheme, Renewable Heat Incentive) and the microgeneration industry rely on the functioning of MCS to develop and maintain standards, certify installers and installations in accordance with standards, to provide assurance to consumers and help the growth of the renewable microgeneration sector. Germserv provide administration of the MCS which includes the following deliverables: financial administration, license services, database and website maintenance, database services, help desk, secretariat function (working groups, Management Panel, Steering Group), and reporting.
