The project, with a budget of £500,000, will take place in the United Kingdom and focuses on developing strategies that support net-zero commitments in various countries. The expected future communication date for the notice is 1st February 2022, with preliminary supplier engagement planned for 13th January 2022 from 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. The procurement is classified as a service category under CPV code 73000000 and is designed to encourage collaboration between academic institutions, local knowledge bases, and governments to foster effective climate solutions ahead of COP27. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in research, consultancy, and stakeholder engagement, particularly those offering IT, training, and project management services. Companies with expertise in climate change, public communication, and collaboration with government entities will be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in this procurement process can help businesses establish themselves as leaders in the field, contributing to strategic developments required for a sustainable net-zero future. ## Notice The UK COP Presidency is launching a new global science partnership of countries to turn climate commitments into science-based and citizen-focused action. The partnership will deep-dive on specific shared net-zero challenges by deploying a novel combination of academic collaboration, local and indigenous knowledge and robust citizen engagement models. The project will provide new insights on net-zero solutions, to inform LTS, NDCs and Net-Zero strategies ahead of COP27. BEIS intends to procure international delivery partners to provide strategic direction and overall project management to coordinate the global academic collaboration, develop and deliver stakeholder engagement models, engage directly with partner governments and deliver public communication. By the end of the COP presidency the aim is to support strategy development in partner countries and have established a framework to exist beyond COP27 to support ongoing development of strategies to deliver a Net-Zero future. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The contractor will be responsible for the strategic oversight and delivery of the project, with oversight from partner countries, including the following activities: Project leadership and management: Provide strategic insight and project management to ensure the project delivers on objectives, establishing an ongoing legacy.
