What is being bought

Under the requirements of the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) for the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), as part of the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF) 2014-20, grant recipients are required to conduct a summative assessment at the conclusion of each project as part of monitoring and evaluation, to include impact assessment and process assessment. The Combined Authority intends to procure an evaluation for the Low Carbon Challenge Fund. This evaluation will help inform similar future funding, already secured from the Authority’s Green Recovery Fund.

Lot details

Lot 1

The Low Carbon Challenge Fund (LCCF) aims to support a shift to the low carbon economy, in the context of a financial recovery from the pandemic. It delivers objectives set out in the West of England Climate and Ecological Strategy and Action Plan. LCCF is funded through ERDF, the West of England Recovery Fund and the Green Recovery Fund. There are three grants streams in the fund: i) Green Business Grants (£1.7m) – grants for SMEs of up to £15k for energy saving improvements to buildings and equipment; ii) Local Energy Scheme (£1.3m) – grants of up to £500k to support the delivery of renewable energy projects that deliver community benefits; iii) Innovative Housing Retrofit Scheme (£500k) – a grant of £500k for a pilot project to test retrofit in 25 hard-to-treat homes. This assessment needs to cover the total delivery of LCCF and delivery by funding stream, with the summative assessment report for ERDF funds only.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Economic impact assessment (79311410); 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.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 7913,7404 median · 30.9 average (5,803 of 13,740 with a bid count)3.2 average (6,507 of 13,740 with named award suppliers)1 comparable price pairs

Delivery region: UKK4354 median · 96.1 average (149 of 435 with a bid count)5.9 average (170 of 435 with named award suppliers)Not published

“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.
