## Summary

The procurement process pertains to the tender titled "2021-069 Technical Advisor for Offshore Tender Round 5 (TR5)," initiated by Ofgem, a government authority based in London, England. The tender, which falls under the services category with a classification of evaluation consultancy services, is currently at the Award stage as of 17th June 2021. The procurement method used is an open procedure, with the contract period commencing on 18th June 2021 and concluding on 17th May 2022. The tender was primarily focused on providing consultancy support during the transaction stage of offshore electricity transmission licences, offering a total contract value of £56,000.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses engaging in technical consultancy and analysis, particularly those specialising in the energy sector, to expand their footprint. Companies that provide evaluation consultancy services, technical analysis, or business analysis would be particularly well-suited to participate in this tender. With the growing emphasis on renewable energy infrastructure, suppliers capable of managing transmission services between offshore and onshore networks could significantly benefit from this competitive tendering process.

## Notice

The Authority runs competitive tenders to grant offshore electricity transmission licences, with the successful bidder becoming the Offshore Transmission Owner (OFTO). OFTO licences confer certain rights and responsibilities on OFTOs, including the right to a regulated revenue stream for a period of up to 20 years in return for provision of transmission services. Through the tender process, interested parties have the opportunity to bid to become an OFTO. The offshore transmission assets that the OFTO takes ownership of are acquired at a transfer value determined by The Authority. Following transfer of ownership, the OFTO owns and manages the transmission assets (including the cables and associated connection equipment) between the offshore point of connection with the generator and the point of connection with the onshore network. The scope of the work in this request includes activities relating to the transaction stage which is the final stage of this tender process. This is the stage where we progress the Preferred Bidder through to Licence Grant and Financial Close.
