Description

The Energy Systems Catapult (ESC) is launching a new Dynamic Procurement System (DPS). This DPS is for Software Development services and Energy System Data Visualisation services, both of which are required immediately to support projects developing ESC's energy system modelling tools. A total budget of circa £250 thousand to £1 million (subject to funding being approved) may be spent over the initial term of this DPS. Skills Required and Project Introduction For Lot 1, the skills required relate to professional development of software. Under Lot 1, ESC is seeking a software development partner to support the delivery of an innovative digital tool. This will be an energy system modelling tool to enable Local Area Energy Planning. For Lot 2, the skills required relate to development and implementation of data visualisation solutions which are required in several of ESC's energy system modelling tools. Under Lot 2, ESC is seeking organisations which can deliver these data visualisation solutions into existing and new tools - including both: (a) tools to be specified under future procurement events; and (b) potentially the Local Area Energy Planning Tool under Lot 1. A brief summary of the first project required under Lot 1 is provided in Appendix 7 - 'Indicative Project Outline for Lots 1 and 2'. Further projects are expected to be launched shortly. Domain expertise in energy systems and/or local planning is desirable but NOT essential, as ESC experts will be available to work with suppliers' teams. The priority is the essential professional software development and data visualisation skills, and organisations which have these software and/or visualisation skills are strongly encouraged to apply even if they do not have energy system / planning domain expertise.
