## Summary

The Scottish Borders Council has awarded a contract titled "Energy Efficiency Consultancy and Programme Management (SBC/2021 -0906)" to the supplier Changeworks. This award was made following an emergency direct procurement process due to urgent requirements related to energy-management services, particularly supporting the Energy Efficient Scotland Area Based Scheme for private sector households. The contract, valued at £249,993.38, was signed on 9th September 2021, and is now active. The work is to be delivered in homes throughout the Scottish Borders, UK, encompassing various energy-management and consultancy services.

This procurement presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in energy-efficiency consultancy and management services. Companies with expertise in housing strategy, technical support, and behavioural change initiatives would be particularly well-suited to compete. The direct award process indicates that the buying organisation is seeking a reliable partner capable of meeting urgent energy efficiency demands, making this an advantageous contract for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their role in public sector energy projects.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Changeworks is uniquely placed to provide objective support towards the development of energy specific elements of housing strategy, investment and advice. The current arrangement with Changeworks allows the Housing Strategy Team access to a network of expertise, including technical support, statistical analysis, advice, communications, and behaviour change and policy development. There are other benefits, such as Changeworks being an impartial organisation able to carry out research and gather householder feedback on Council led energy efficiency projects. Additional information: The relationship between the Council and Changeworks has allowed the Council's energy efficiency objectives to be met and has been a significant factor in achieving the levels of funding coming down to the Borders, without which the Council does not have the skills nor capacity to undertake this alone.
