All tender information MUST be submitted through the Jaggaer eSourcing Portal.
UK Shared Business Services Limited (UK SBS) on behalf of the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) invite you to this Request for Proposal in supporting the Heat Network.
UK SBS is managing this procurement process in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as may be amended from time to time) (the “Regulations”).
This is a Services Framework Agreement being procured under the Open Procedure.
Background
The Energy White Paper, Heat & Buildings Strategy, and Net Zero Strategy have committed to introducing heat network zoning in England by 2025. Heat network zoning will revolutionise the development of heat networks in towns and cities across England.
By designating zones where heat networks offer the most cost-effective solution for decarbonising heat, local authorities and heat network developers can swiftly identify where new large-scale strategic heat networks should be constructed. This strategic approach aims to enhance the efficiency of the heat network development process, helping to streamline and target the multi-billion-pound investment needed to deliver heat networks on the scale required to meet the UK’s net-zero goals.
The development of the heat network zoning process will be supported by the Energy Bill, providing the government with the authority to implement zoning in England. This will involve creating a nationwide methodology for identifying and designating heat network zones, establishing a Zoning Coordinator role, and possibly a Central Authority to oversee zoning at a national level.
Access to skilled consultants is vital for the zoning process's success, and this procurement aims to establish a consultant framework as we move from the pilot phase towards a business-as-usual process in line with the national heat network zoning policy coming into force in 2025.
This Framework Agreement is split into the following Lots:
Lot 1 – National Zoning Methodology
Lot 2 – Advanced Zoning Delivery which is sub lotted as follows:
- Sub-Lot 2.1 – Project Management Support
- Sub-Lot 2.2 – Technical Support
- Sub-Lot 2.3 – Commercial Support
- Sub-Lot 2.4 – Financial Support
- Sub-Lot 2.5 – Legal Support
Lot 3 - National Zoning Model which is sub lotted as follows:
- Sub-Lot 3.1Model Development Support
- Sub-Lot 3.2 Model Maintenance and Data Support
You may bid for one or more lots however the bids for each lot will be evaluated separately. If you intend to bid for more than one lot, you must submit a separate bid for each lot you are bidding for.
An overview of the requirements has been provided above, please ensure you review the full specification and additional appendices for full details of this requirement.
