This procurement falls within the solar energy industry category and has a planned budget of £750,000, running from 1st December 2018 to 31st March 2019. Currently in the planning stage, the tender is set to select up to four qualified suppliers through a negotiated procedure with prior information notice, with a future notice date expected on 31st October 2018. This tender presents exciting growth opportunities for businesses engaged in designing energy systems, project estimation, and related consultancy services. Companies capable of developing innovative energy solutions for large-scale public sector sites, particularly those experienced in solar energy and heating system design, would be well-positioned to participate. As the project aims to establish methodologies applicable to complex energy systems, businesses that can demonstrate a strong portfolio in renewable energy and sustainable designs may find this an advantageous prospect for collaboration and contract acquisition. ## Notice A recent Innovate UK funded feasibility study identified that the Energy Systems Catapult (ESC) working together with the Cabinet Office (CO), Crown Commercial Service (CCS) and the public sector estate might be uniquely positioned to accelerate energy system transformation measures at scale across the public sector estate. We now wish to further explore this opportunity. Energy Systems Catapult wishes to conduct a 3.5 month challenge-based phase of work, to further develop transformation methodologies and business cases that build on the feasibility project work. We intend to Tender to select up to 4 suitably qualified and experienced suppliers, or consortia of suppliers, to undertake the challenge that seeks to: 1. develop future energy systems designs for up to 6 public sector campus-scale sites (as pathfinder projects) and also to support a wider team, including the Energy Systems Catapult, develop a generic methodology that might be suitable to support the roll-out of more complex energy systems across the public sector estate. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8fb0a5d7-df1a-407c-947c-11fb8d3d2c29 | | Notice type | Planned Procurement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Other - Under threshold - Negotiated Procedure with PIN | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 27 Jun 2018 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 31 Oct 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Dec 2018 - 31 Mar 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £750,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Cancelled | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | ENERGY SYSTEMS CATAPULT LIMITED | | Locality | BIRMINGHAM | | Post town | Birmingham | | Postcode | B4 6BS | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG31 Birmingham | | Local authority | Birmingham | | Electoral ward | Ladywood | | Westminster constituency | Birmingham Ladywood | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 09 - Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 09330000 - Solar energy - 71242000 - Project and design preparation, estimation of costs - 71321200 - Heating-system design services - 73300000 - Design and execution of research and development - 79415200 - Design consultancy services - 79930000 - Specialty design services ## Release History - 27 Jun 2018 at 16:18 - Planning - Planned Procurement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8fb0a5d7-df1a-407c-947c-11fb8d3d2c29 - 27 Jun 2018 at 14:31 - Planning - Planned Procurement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5ad450b9-5aff-4a67-9c23-3a6d7b6fc11a ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8fb0a5d7-df1a-407c-947c-11fb8d3d2c29 27th June 2018 - Future opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5ad450b9-5aff-4a67-9c23-3a6d7b6fc11a 27th June 2018 - Future opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://es.catapult.org.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
