Published requirement description

Transport for London (TfL), acting on behalf of the Greater London Authority (GLA), invites suitably qualified organisations to participate in an Open Procedure under the Procurement Act 2023 Light Touch Regime for the provision of Third Party Resident Support Services in support of the Warm Homes Local Grant (WHLG) Programme.

The Warm Homes Local Grant Programme is funded by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) and delivers domestic energy efficiency and low-carbon heating measures to eligible low-income households across London. The Programme forms part of Warmer Homes London and supports the Mayor of London's objectives to reduce fuel poverty, improve housing quality and accelerate London's transition to net zero.

The purpose of the Third Party Resident Support Service is to provide tailored, resident-centred support to vulnerable, digitally excluded and harder-to-reach residents throughout their participation in the Programme. The Service is intended to improve resident engagement, reduce avoidable programme attrition, improve customer experience and support successful delivery of retrofit measures.

Services may include:

  • resident engagement and outreach activities;
  • casework and tailored resident support;
  • support for vulnerable and digitally excluded residents;
  • assistance with programme navigation and communications;
  • support during assessment, installation and completion stages;
  • signposting and referral to other services where appropriate;
  • reporting, performance monitoring and programme evaluation.

The procurement is divided into four (4) geographical Lots/scopes. Bidders may bid for one, multiple or all Lots. Lots will be evaluated independently in accordance with the published evaluation methodology.

Lot 1

Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Haringey and Islington.

Lot 2

How this buyer will score bids.

The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).

    Details are provided in the Procurement Specific Questionnaire and Invitation to Tender.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • Turnover usually expected: about £481,095 – ~£858,267 per lot (twice each lot's annual value).

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula. Turnover is an indicative market norm (≈2× annual value), not a published condition.

How often do local suppliers win?
i

How often local firms win similar work.

Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.

Here, local means registered in Greater London.

Middle value in days from the deadline to the first award notice, on competitions that published both dates.

Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.

Last 36 months.

About this data
  • Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
  • Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
  • Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the match score are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
  • Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.

  • Suppliers should first check whether their organisation is already registered on SAP Ariba before self-registering to avoid creating a duplicate registration. To do so, log onto SAP Ariba.
  • Suppliers are also requested to ensure that the contact details of all supplier personnel that will participate in this procurement activity are listed in your organisation's SAP Ariba registration details.

Guidance on registering is available here: support.ariba.com/item/view/216216 ↗

  • Details of your role with your organisation as registered with SAP Ariba;

    Interested organisations are invited to express their interest and contribute to this market engagement exercise.

    Under the proposed model, community energy groups or other community‑based organisations would support residents through the process, from receiving their energy assessment through to installation. Delivery of retrofit works and identification of applicants remain the responsibility of the GLA and its delivery partners. The selected community energy groups will also be expected to support with collecting data, lessons learnt and participating in evaluation of the pilot project.

    Preliminary Market Engagement Questionnaire

    The GLA has developed a short qualitative questionnaire to gather feedback on the initial delivery model and early thinking. Organisations interested in participating in this questionnaire should email [email protected]. A covering letter and a link to the questionnaire will then be shared. The questionnaire will remain open until Monday 23rd March.
