Tender information last checkedLast checked 29 Sept 2026, 21:55.

Opportunity overview

This Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) has been established to support the inspection, repair, and replacement of energy efficiency measures and renewable technology installations. The DPS will operate independently but will complement the LHCPG N9 framework, ensuring that a comprehensive range of renewable and energy-efficient solutions are accessible. The scope of this DPS includes: - Heating and ventilation - Electrical energy systems - Insulation - Metering and controls - Emerging technologies - Multidisciplinary services The aim is to provide contracting authorities with a flexible route to procure innovative, low-carbon solutions that align with sustainability goals, funding requirements, and regulatory compliance. Given the evolving nature of the renewable energy sector, this DPS has been structured to allow for future expansion, with the flexibility to introduce additional lots in response to market demand. This ensures that emerging technologies and government-backed initiatives, such as hydrogen heating, BIM solutions, smart metering, and multidisciplinary renewable projects, can be incorporated without requiring a new procurement process. In line with Public Contracts Regulations (PCR) 2015, any future modifications will be transparently managed, ensuring compliance while maintaining an agile approach to procurement. Through this DPS, public sector bodies will have access to qualified suppliers who can deliver high-quality, energy-efficient solutions that contribute to decarbonisation targets and environmental sustainability.
