## Summary

The University of Nottingham is seeking to enhance its energy management systems by creating a Digital Twin of its campus through a direct procurement process. The contract, valued at £42,630, is complete, with the contract period running from 25 February 2022. The procurement initiated with a single tender action, focusing on industry-specific software solutions. This project specifically targets the East Midlands region in the United Kingdom and was awarded to IES Ltd, the sole provider capable of delivering the required functionality.

This tender provides an excellent opportunity for SMEs that specialise in advanced software solutions and energy management systems. Businesses that can demonstrate unique technological capabilities or innovative software development are well-suited to compete in future procurement processes within similar projects. With the increasing demand for energy efficiency and management solutions in educational institutions, there is significant potential for growth in this sector.

## Notice

IES will create a Digital Twin of the University of Nottingham that will interface with the University's energy management systems. A digital twin for University Park campus will be created and frameworks will be setup to enable students to populate the other 3 Nottingham campuses, Jubilee, Castle Meadow and Sutton Bonington. IES will also provide training for staff and students, and 5 members of the Estates team. IES are the only organisation that can provide the functionality that is required for this project. The unique elements of the software are not offered by other software providers in one central integrated energy modelling platform.
