This initiative falls under the environmental services industry category and is aimed at updating a previous Strategic Environmental Assessment to inform future offshore energy strategies. The procurement stage is currently in the planning phase, with a future notice date set for 1st March 2022. This process is based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and relates to the provision of services in various environmental and marine-related sectors, as outlined by multiple classification schemes. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on environmental services, consultancy, and research and development within the marine sector. Companies that specialise in environmental assessments, project consultancy, and innovative solutions for offshore wind and marine renewables will be particularly well-suited to compete. Participating in this procurement process can enhance business visibility and establish partnerships in the burgeoning field of renewable energy in Northern Ireland. ## Notice Construction and Procurement Delivery (CPD) is facilitating this Pre-Market Engagement Exercise on behalf of DFE, who aim to establish the level of market interest to inform the procurement process. The objectives of such exercises are to: - gain initial supplier awareness, engagement and opinion, resulting in a confidence around viability of concept; * prevent the department from advertising an unachievable project at UK e-notification service www.find-tender.service.gov.uk stage; - gain insight to the market possibilities and potential innovative solutions; - understand possible risks and issues not previously considered; - inform the Outline Business Case and affordability; and - Inform the Procurement Strategy. Further information is provided in the Project ID 3755988. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The Department for the Economy (DfE) is preparing to initiate a procurement process to establish a contract with a Supplier to carry out an update to a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) that was completed by AECOM and Metoc in 2012 to address the potential effects that the development of offshore wind and marine renewables (tidal and wave) could have on the NI coastal and marine environment and other marine users and make recommendations for informing the development of the Offshore Renewable Energy Strategic Action Plan (ORESAP) for the period 2012-2020 . The updated SEA will be used to inform the development of a new Offshore Energy Action Plan under the auspices of the emerging Northern Ireland Energy Strategy. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/028318-2021 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Nov 2021 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 1 Mar 2022 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | DEPARTMENT FOR ECONOMY | | Locality | BELFAST | | Post town | Northern Ireland | | Postcode | BT4 2JP | | Country | Northern Ireland | | ITL 1 | TLN Northern Ireland | | ITL 2 | TLN0 Northern Ireland | | ITL 3 | TLN06 Belfast | | Local authority | Belfast | | Electoral ward | Stormont | | Westminster constituency | Belfast East | | Delivery location | TLN Northern Ireland | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 71000000 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 90000000 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services - 90700000 - Environmental services - 90710000 - Environmental management - 90711200 - Environmental standards other than for construction - 90711400 - Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) services other than for construction - 90711500 - Environmental monitoring other than for construction - 90712300 - Marine conservation strategy planning - 90714000 - Environmental auditing - 90715200 - Other pollution investigation services - 90720000 - Environmental protection - 90721000 - Environmental safety services ## Release History - 12 Nov 2021 at 11:04 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/028318-2021 ## Notice URLs - https://etendersni.gov.uk/epps - https://www.economy-ni.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
