What is being bought

Cadent have an ambitious programme of activities underway, aimed at building the case for hydrogen to be used in our networks and more recently in making the case for the continued use of the gas network supporting, inter alia the adoption of hybrid heating systems, growth in biomethane and a significant reduction in leakage levels to the lowest levels in the sector. While we believe hydrogen will have a key role to play in the future, for use in industry, transport and possibly in the heating of homes and businesses, the exact pathway to decarbonisation remains very uncertain. Cadent seeks to maintain a leadership position externally on the transition to net zero and have a robust position internally on the implications of different pathways on the business. The awarded suppliers will support our programme of activities with research and consultancy services.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Business and management consultancy and related services (79400000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

    "description": "To register your interest in the RFP please email: olwyn.munjeri@cadentgas.com\nRFP launch: 06/09/2024\nRFP Deadline: 07/10/2024\nTo help the UK achieve the Government's net zero target by 2050, Cadent will need to move away from transporting natural gas, a fossil fuel, to transporting greener gases such as biomethane and hydrogen. \nCadent have an ambitious programme of activities underway, aimed at building the case for hydrogen to be used in our networks and more recently in making the case for the continued use of the gas network supporting, inter alia the adoption of hybrid heating systems, growth in biomethane and a significant reduction in leakage levels to the lowest levels in the sector.  \nWhile we believe hydrogen will have a key role to play in the future, for use in industry, transport and possibly in the heating of homes and businesses, the exact pathway to decarbonisation remains very uncertain.  \nCadent seeks to maintain a leadership position externally on the transition to net zero and have a robust position internally on the implications of different pathways on the business. \nWe are seeking to work with suppliers to support our programme of activities with research and consultancy services.  We would like to call on a range of business strategy consultancies to support the Strategy Team in the delivery of an extensive programme of work. The kinds of work could include: \n- The creation and co-creation of energy policy thought leadership and solutions to problems that enable the energy transition to progress. \n- Deep dives into threats and opportunities and the development of Cadent's strategy in relation to these e.g. biomethane, REMA, hybrid heating, heat pumps, district heating, decommissioning etc. \n- Regulatory policy design and influencing of the policy framework. \n- Long-term business strategy and organisational design including impact on regulatory asset values, financing etc. \n- New markets and strategies for possible entry.",
