This procurement falls under the category of Research and Development services, with an estimated contract value of £40,000. The tender process is currently in the open stage, using an open procedure method suitable for organisations looking to submit bids. Interested parties should ensure their bids are submitted by the deadline of 11:59 PM on 23rd January 2018, with the contract expected to commence on 5th February 2018 and finish by 30th April 2018. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in environmental research and consultancy, particularly those focused on greenhouse gas reduction technologies. Companies that specialise in modelling, technology deployment, and regulatory compliance related to F-gases will find themselves well-positioned to compete for this contract. SMEs with innovative solutions in sustainability and emissions reduction are encouraged to participate, aligning with the government's objective to enhance environmental policies beyond current regulations. ## Notice The CCC and carbon budget advice The Committee on Climate Change was set up as part of the Climate Change Act. The Committee is an independent body tasked with providing advice to government on climate change issues, and particularly the setting of carbon budgets for the UK. The CCC's advice on carbon budgets is based on detailed modelling of a range of technologies and behaviours that could be deployed across the economy. Using that modelling, CCC has developed scenarios for deployment of technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 2020 , 2030 and to 2050 . These are intended to demonstrate possible ways in which carbon budgets and the 2050 target could be met, estimate the economic cost of doing so, and identify barriers to delivery and consider how these could be overcome. F-gas reduction in the CCC's scenarios The CCC's scenarios for meeting the fifth carbon budget set out a 68% cut in F-gas emissions from 2015 to 2030, involving reductions in emissions from refrigeration, air conditioning in buildings and vehicles and aerosols. However, the evidence base in this area is old and likely outdated. This has limited the CCC's capacity to assess whether there is potential for the Government to implement policy that goes beyond the existing F-gas Regulation. In 2015 and 2016, we recommended that the Government investigate opportunities to go beyond the EU regulatory minimums on F-gases. The Government has not made progress on this. *** Please see specification for more information *** Additional information: Bids should be sent in time for receipt by 11:59pm on 23rd January 2018 ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/611b948b-51d2-4dc0-af52-4d2507ee48ab | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 21 Dec 2017 | | Submission deadline | 23 Jan 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 5 Feb 2018 - 30 Apr 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £40,000 | | 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 - 21 Dec 2017 at 16:07 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/611b948b-51d2-4dc0-af52-4d2507ee48ab ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/611b948b-51d2-4dc0-af52-4d2507ee48ab 21st December 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/b134ebf5-0eda-4cb8-be62-cca47738def8 ITT - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/ef366b22-1a72-431c-8614-ac86a96feafa Specification - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/28b6fa30-2cdc-4ed9-ab43-d7c86e69a63d T&C's ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
