    The Council has prepared an outline specification for this contract, a headline change for which is a shift in the model to preparing a full programme of retrofit works for a given year in partnership with the Coordination & Design partner, ahead of going to market to secure Retrofit Installers.

    It is expected that this shift in approach will achieve the following:

    Improve clarity ahead of Retrofit Installer procurement, reducing the level of risk for prospective bidders.

    Allow the Council, advised by its Coordination & Design partner, to address necessary remedial works associated with proposed retrofit projects before engaging Retrofit Installers.

    More closely align the programme with the ideal vision set out in PAS2035:2023

    Engagement process description:
