The procurement process involves commissioning a supplier(s) to deliver support and learning services across the Climate Action Fund grant holders in the research and development services sector. The £4,580,000 contract involves three key strands - Enable, Inform, and Inspire. The procurement method is selective, under the Restricted procedure. The tender deadline is set for July 19, 2023, with the invitation date for the second stage scheduled for September 4, 2023. This tender provides business growth opportunities for companies in the research and development services and consultancy sectors. Businesses with expertise in delivering impactful community-led climate change projects and strategic communications are well-suited to compete. The selected supplier(s) will work closely with grant holders to promote collaboration, generate evidence on community-led action, and inspire more communities to take climate action across the UK. This opportunity supports long-term systematic change and aims to empower communities to address climate and ecological emergencies actively. ## Notice The National Lottery Community Fund are seeking to commission a supplier(s) to facilitate and deliver support and learning services across the Climate Action Fund grant holders. The three strands are based on what we believe require distinct activities, skills and expertise to deliver, but we recognise their interdependent relationship and that they do not sit in isolation from each other. It will be down to the supplier(s) who bid for the work as to how they feel best to deliver the needs of the ITT. We anticipate that the first strand (Enable) is the key/integral part of the overall delivery of the contract, from which the other strands (Inform and Inspire) will 'hang'. ENABLE - Build the capacity of CAF grant holders to undertake more impactful community led climate change INFORM - Generate and facilitate evidence and learning about community led climate action which will support grant holders and progress towards the CAF vision INSPIRE - Create and curate a collective voice to inspire and encourage more and more communities across the UK to take climate action ### Lot Information Lot 1 The National Lottery Community Fund is seeking to procure a suitable supplier(s) to facilitate and deliver support and learning across the Climate Action Fund grant holders. The Climate Action Fund is a 10 year PS100m commitment (202-2030) to support communities across the UK to take action on climate. CAF aims to deliver community-led climate action to those who need it most. It's vision is to empower and inspire people in local communities across the UK to take positive action of climate and ecological emergencies. These communities will demonstrate what is possible when people take the lead in tackling climate change, helping those around them to thrive, improving equity and responding to inter-sectional issues. They work together, share their learning and are active participants in a broader movement of change. CAF aims to support projects that will have a legacy beyond our funding and that, where relevant, are able to point towards longer-term systematic change. The programme also aims to encourage and inspire more and more people across the UK via the funded projects and the activities and work they deliver, to take climate action in their own communities and providing them with the tools to do so. The procured supplier(s) will aim to: 1. To enable the funded projects to network and collaborate with one another, help them to identify ways in which to share their activities and learning, both individually and collectively, and engage, inspire and enable other communities to play their part. The successful supplier(s) will work with the projects to build their skills, capacity and knowledge to enable them to deliver impactful community led climate action. 2. To work closely with the projects to generate and facilitate evidence about community led action. We hope evidence generated from the programme will remove barriers, create opportunities for cross sector collaboration and unlock further investment for community led climate action. 3. To support projects to develop ambitious, creative and strategic programme of communications which will provide inspiration to further community led climate action. This strand of work will also involve targeted design and dissemination of learning and evidence generated by the programme about community led climate action to reach grant holders and wider audiences. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/017224-2023 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Restricted procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 16 Jun 2023 | | Submission deadline | 19 Jul 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £4,580,000 | | Lots value | £4,580,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | BIG LOTTERY FUND, OPERATING AS THE NATIONAL LOTTERY COMMUNITY FUND | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1P 4DF | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 73100000 - Research and experimental development services - 73300000 - Design and execution of research and development ## Release History - 16 Jun 2023 at 14:22 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/017224-2023 ## Notice URLs - https://tnlcommunityfund.bravosolution.co.uk - https://www.tnlcommunityfund.org.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
