## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Salix Finance Ltd, a central government public authority located in London, involves the award of contracts for Technical Assessment Services. The procurement's scope is to provide application assessment and change request services to support the ECT team over an 18-month period. The services fall under the energy-efficiency and building services consultancy categories. The procurement followed an open method, described as below threshold - open competition, and was at the award stage, with contracts now active. Key dates include the contract period starting on 5th January 2026 and ending on 5th July 2027. Contracts were awarded to Ricardo-AEA Limited and AtkinsRéalis UK Limited, both large companies well-versed in consultancy services.

This tender creates significant opportunities for consultancy businesses specialising in energy-efficiency and building services. Companies with expertise in technical compliance and evaluation against grant funding criteria are especially well-suited to compete. The open competition and the use of a price-per-quality-point methodology provide a fair chance for businesses to demonstrate their capabilities and value propositions. The focus on consultancy services offers growth prospects for large consultancy firms and possibly qualifying SMEs interested in expanding their footprint in public sector projects within the UK.
