Domestic Energy Efficiency Delivery Partner Framework - AWARD

Award outcome

Description

Portsmouth City Council - the 'council' - is inviting requests from suitably qualified suppliers to participate in the establishment of a Domestic Energy Efficiency Delivery Partner Framework for the delivery of domestic energy efficiency measures. The council is seeking to work with a primary provider who will manage funds on behalf of the council for the allocation of funding and delivery of energy efficiency works related to funding streams made available by the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS). Such funding streams are likely to include for, but not be limited to, the following schemes: • Local Authority Delivery (LAD) • Home Upgrade Grant (HUG) • Social Housing Decarbonisation Funding (SHDF) • Warm Homes Funding (WHF) The council leads a group of 21 partner local authorities under the banner of the Warmer Homes Consortium (WHC). WHC membership is open to any Local Authority or Registered Provider located within the South West, South East, London and East of England. Whilst the framework will be used for delivery of efficiency measures across the geographical areas covered by the participating WHC members, the work will be managed through the council who will be the sole party to the agreement and resulting call off contracts.

No guarantees can be made in respect of the value estimates stated which may be significantly exceeded should significant additional related funding streams and / or further WHC participation be secured over the term of the agreement. Whilst the council is seeking to work with a single primary provider, 3-4 overall providers will be appointed onto the framework agreement. The top ranked provider will act as the primary delivery partner provider with call off contracts generally let via direct award with the remaining providers held in contingency in case of any significant performance issues. In addition the council may also opt to invite all providers to submit mini-competition proposals for project commissions which may require the development of alternative delivery models, access to specialist resources, etc. The council will run the procurement process to establish the framework agreement in accordance with the Open Procedure as defined within the Public Contracts Regulations (2015) in accordance with the following target programme: • Issue FTS Contract Notice - 15.12.22 • Tender return deadline - 27.01.23 at 12:00(noon) • Notificati...
