BSH/ENR/Provision of Retrofit Assessment, Coordination and EPC Surveys of properties in Bristol, North Somerset and Bath and North East Somerset

Bristol City Council requires the services of a contractor for the provision of Energy

Performance Certificates (EPCs), Retrofit Assessments and Retrofit Coordination. These

services will support a range of energy efficiency projects in domestic properties across

Bristol, with some work within the administrative areas of North Somerset Council and Bath

and North East Somerset Council.

Through the application of Energy Company Obligation (ECO) funding, new heating systems

are being installed alongside loft and cavity wall insulation using a fabric first approach. This

project requires both pre-installation and post-installation EPCs to be completed, along with

the services of a Retrofit Assessor and Retrofit Coordinator to continue delivering the Warm

Homes Fund in accordance with PAS2035 requirements.

The Council has reviewed and upgraded its payment processes with a view to achieving

greater efficiency in paying its suppliers and as such improving its relationship with them. As

a result, the Council is now able to offer a Supplier Incentive Scheme. Further details are set

out in the tender documents.

Under this contract the contractor and their supply chain will be required to actively

participate in the achievement of the Contracting Authority’s social, economic and environmental objectives. Accordingly, contract documents may relate to social, economic and environmental considerations.
