Description

The Futures Framework is a register of consultants and researchers that can be called upon by HM Government (HMG) Departments and Agencies and UK public bodies  to support conducting work to think strategically about the long term future (herein called Futures) and further developing these capabilities in government. 
The demand for Futures work, and other ‘fields’ that can help people to think about the long term future (e.g. systems analysis, present-day scanning, decision making support), in government is currently outstripping the capacity of the government’s expertise. The Futures Framework will assist policymakers to quickly and with minimal cost identify and procure Futures and related services and capability development opportunities. The Framework will be used by government departments and agencies to support a range of activities, including, but not limited to, the techniques in the Government’s published Futures Toolkit.

LOCAL AREA ENERGY PLAN FOR NORTH NORTHAMPTONSHIRE

The purpose of the commission is to advance the Net Zero goals and ambitions of North Northamptonshire. North Northamptonshire Council (NNC) are looking to appoint a suitably qualified consultant to produce a Local Area Energy Plan (LAEP) for North Northants. The LAEP will be an integral part of the Roadmap to Net Zero Action Plan and new Local Plan for the North Northants area. This energy strategy is critical as it will underpin the Council's climate emergency response and act as a framework to inform policy, planning, investment, and wider collaboration with key stakeholders to deliver Net Zero targets, including through the Big50 initiative. The LAEP should include a comprehensive emissions assessment of the built environment (all categories of domestic, non-domestic, commercial, and industrial buildings) and relevant aspects of the transport sector; science-based targets for emissions reduction, to include interim milestones and sector-specific targets. This includes both existing and planned development and other proposals. It will integrate insights from the North Northamptonshire to Net Zero (NN2NZ) project and the Local Plan evidence base and should be produced in conjunction with key stakeholders from the energy sector. NNC has procured baseline Net Zero data from the Energy System Catapult, the successful Supplier will be expected to use this data which pertains to stages 1-3 of the LAEP. Funding of up to £85,000 is available to support the creation of the LAEP, including stakeholder engagement. The contract will comprise an eight-month delivery programme.
