## Summary

The procurement process detailed here is led by Aberdeenshire Council, focusing on the tender titled "Award of Route Map to 2030 Development" within the services industry category. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, following a direct award to Arcadis Consulting (UK) Limited due to their previous work on the Council's Net Zero Carbon Road Map. The tender period commenced on 22nd November 2021 and concluded on 29th April 2022, with the aim of achieving a significant reduction in carbon dioxide equivalent emissions by 2030 in Aberdeenshire.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies specialising in energy-efficiency consultancy services. Businesses with expertise in carbon budgeting, sustainability strategies, or related environmental solutions would be well-positioned to compete in similar tenders. Additionally, firms that can provide innovative methodologies for tracking carbon reductions or developing effective toolkits for emissions management may find considerable prospects in future collaborations with local government authorities striving for net-zero outcomes.

## Notice

Advancement of the Carbon Budget setting methodology to produce a firm budget (both carbon and financial) for 01 April 2022 to 31 March 2027 with an indicative budget taking Aberdeenshire Council up to 31 March 2031 which would bring the Council to its target of a 75% reduction in carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions.Most actions will need to be identified for these savings at least to the level of detail required for inclusion in the indicative budgets.Implications of all the work needed to be carried out to reach a 75% reduction in CO2e would need to be reflected in both the revenue and capital budgets ensuring that the various budgets form a coherent whole.Development of a toolkit that shows the method used for cost per tonne saved for all the significant measures included.Transparency in the methodology for the toolkit so that officers and elected members understand how each action required to reduce emissions has been calculated and what assumptions have been made (e.g., future costs, emission factor changes, availability of materials).A workshop on the methodology of the toolkit provided for key officers involved in its future use ensuring skills for updating the toolkit annually as required have been developed in-house.Determine scope and boundaries for the emission reductions the Council is working towards. It will initially focus on emissions the Council currently report on, but it should not be limited to this. Wider scope 3 emissions could be included in the future so the toolkit must make this possible too.Integrate work already taking place across other services - e.g., work being done by current Carbon Leads in each Directorate, fleet strategy development, Aberdeenshire Council Net Zero Strategy Decarbonisation assessment for Council operational buildings (this study was undertaken by consultants from Arcadis with findings currently in draft and will be reported to Sustainability Committee in future).Needs to ensure that projects identified are realistic from a procurement and supply chain perspective to safeguard deliverability.The toolkit created must become the property of Aberdeenshire Council so that choices surrounding its future use belong to the Council.Meetings with services from each Directorate must be factored in to the timeline in order to gather relevant information on service delivery opportunities and challenges for reaching the 75% reduction target by 2030.Collaborative opportunities for example through the shared procurement service should be consideredA presentation on work on going to be made to the Sustainability Committee on 16 February 2022.Help to identify the short-term and long-term resources the Council will require in order for Aberdeenshire to become a Net Zero region by 2045.Opportunities for joining up national and local priorities and potentially beginning to identify projects ready for future funding calls.Update Aberdeenshire regional emissions data - the Monitoring Emissions Inventory with the latest year data available (we currently have this data up to 2015).
