Suffolk County Council has awarded a contract for the Suffolk Retrofit Assessment Voucher Scheme under the Suffolk Climate Emergency Programme (SCEP). This procurement falls under the industry category of Building Surveying Services (CPV code 71315300) and targets services related to energy efficiency. The contract, valued at £240,000 (exclusive of VAT) for an initial 18-month period with an optional 18-month extension, totals £480,000. The procurement process has progressed from planning to tender and is now at the award stage. Reed in Partnership Limited has been selected as the supplier for this contract. This scheme aims to deliver retrofit assessments across Suffolk, covering all five local authorities: Babergh, East Suffolk, Ipswich, Mid Suffolk, and West Suffolk.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in building surveying, energy-efficiency consultancy, and related services. Companies equipped to deliver comprehensive programme management, conduct retrofit assessments to PAS 2035, and manage marketing campaigns aimed at diverse demographics in Suffolk stand to benefit. Additionally, those providing homeowner guidance on the implementation of energy-efficient measures and grant funding can leverage this opportunity. Businesses with a large operational scale, like Reed in Partnership Limited, are well-suited to manage the scope of this contract, including promoting the scheme and ensuring its successful implementation.
