LASER are in the process of putting in place a route-to-market for consulting, designing and installing energy and carbon reduction related products and services for public sector bodies. The scope of this contract is broad to help support the public sector in reaching their Net Zero carbon goals and we are proposing to cover four lots:
 
  1. Site survey based consultancy (e.g. DECs, EPCs, investment grade audits)
  2. netZero management consultancy (e.g. planning assistance, grid connection assistance, legal, financial, education, supply-chain analysis, programme management etc)
  3. Technology specific consultancy (e.g. Heat Pumps, Rooftop PV, Battery, Insulation)
  4. Technology specific installation (as with point 3 above, but for the installation of the assets)
 
The above list is by no means exhaustive and more details of what these cover can be found in the links below. As a part of this engagement LASER are seeking feedback from potential suppliers of other areas that could be included. Once the contract is in place, the customers could use it to seek quotes from any supplier that has successfully applied to be included within the contract. In the below links, LASER Energy are looking to gain expressions of interest from suppliers as well as obtaining feedback on what is included and the contracting route itself.
