This project falls under the industry category of research and development services and related consultancy services, with a total budget of £72,000. Bids must be submitted by 10 am on 9th October 2017, while the contract period will commence on 23rd October 2017 and conclude on 31st March 2018. The work will primarily take place in London, United Kingdom. This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses engaged in agricultural consultancy, environmental management, and land use planning. Companies with expertise in climate change mitigation strategies and land management practices would be particularly well-suited to compete. Given the emphasis on delivering deeper emissions cuts and maintaining ecological resilience, firms that can demonstrate innovative solutions in bioenergy and sustainable land use are likely to have a competitive advantage in this procurement process. ## Notice Land excluding built-up areas (referred to here as 'non-developed land', which include agricultural land, woodlands and semi-natural habitats) is an important and finite resource. It provides a wide range of sometimes competing goods and services such as food, water, wildlife habitats, carbon storage, timber and bioenergy feedstocks, flood attenuation and green spaces for recreational activities. Choices on how non-developed land is used have a significant influence on reducing GHG emissions and preparing for the impacts of climate change. Therefore, the way that this land is managed and used is relevant both to the CCC's advice and analysis on reducing GHG emissions (mitigation) and to the ASC's advice on preparing for climate change (adaptation): * Carbon budgets have been legislated for 5 five-year periods from 2008 to 2032, at levels recommended by the CCC. In setting carbon budgets, we have estimated the contribution in emissions reduction from the two land-based sectors: agriculture and land use, land use change and forestry (LULUCF). * The level of preparedness to climate change in England is assessed across a range of land uses and related services, including agriculture, forestry, biodiversity, and flooding and water management. Looking further ahead, the use and management of non-developed land will play a crucial role in helping meet the Paris Agreement's ambitious target for net zero global emissions in the second half of this century, given land's current uniqueness amongst all sectors covered by the GHG national inventory to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and the possibility of combining biomass products with technologies such as carbon, capture and storage (CCS) to deliver negative emissions. It is against this background that we want to explore further how the use and management of land, soils, crops and livestock could deliver longer-term deeper emissions cuts, increased supply of bioenergy feedstocks and increased GHG removals in the UK agriculture and LULUCF sectors to 2050 and beyond, whilst at least maintaining resilience and other outputs. Additional information: Bids should be sent in time in time for receipt by 10 am on 9th October 2017 ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/cd1fa08d-fa94-40b1-9471-cddf597994f8 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Other - Open opportunity | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Sep 2017 | | Submission deadline | 9 Oct 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 22 Oct 2017 - 31 Mar 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £75,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE COMMITTEE ON CLIMATE CHANGE | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1W 8NR | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI33 Kensington & Chelsea and Hammersmith & Fulham | | Local authority | Kensington and Chelsea | | Electoral ward | Royal Hospital | | Westminster constituency | Chelsea and Fulham | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 12 Sep 2017 at 11:05 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/cd1fa08d-fa94-40b1-9471-cddf597994f8 - 12 Sep 2017 at 11:01 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/cd1fa08d-fa94-40b1-9471-cddf597994f8 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/cd1fa08d-fa94-40b1-9471-cddf597994f8 12th September 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/93e2cc95-657e-4690-8070-ae755952e5ba ITT - Quantify the impact of future land use scenarios to 2050 and beyond - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/a3e1a13f-31de-4229-90e7-0071188da7bd Specification - Quantify the impact of future land use scenarios to 2050 and beyond - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/e325a776-ee34-41a6-9736-f242d4101b1f T&C's ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
