Description

The purpose of this RFFP is to assist the Catapult in establishing a Capabilities Framework by appointing organisations who can meet ongoing and/or fast turnaround requirements.
It is the Catapult’s intention to utilise this Capabilities Framework to support new and on-going initiatives, likely supporting International Development and Humanitarian response activities.
These may be for government funded projects, other funding bodies’ projects, supporting International Development/Humanitarian organisations/consultancies, and supporting other project’s needs.
Whilst the capabilities required are likely to be varied, the actual requirements will depend on the projects being undertaken and the needs of the ultimate customer. In addition, it should be noted that the work may often demand both short timescales (potentially 48 hours) for the initial responses, and for the actual delivery of the capability.
The capabilities required are likely to include, but not be limited to the following list. These capabilities form the lots that will be used within the Framework. Where appropriate within your responses please highlight the proposed use of manual methods, automated methods, Machine Learning (ML), Artificial Intelligence (AI).
- Change detection.
- Object detection.
- Population movements.
- Critical infrastructure analysis.
- Climate.
- Open-Sourced INTelligence (OSINT) analysis.
- Cartography and mapping.
- Development of Web GIS mapping applications.
- Provision of additional surge support resources with Earth Observation (EO), Geospatial Analysis, and/or Geographical Information System (GIS) capabilities and experience.
- Modelling capabilities relevant to the International Development and Humanitarian environment.

Climate Services for a Net Zero Resilient World (CSN0W2)

DESNZ is seeking to procure a contractor to provide climate services focusing on the integration of mitigation and adaptation to build resilience and de-risk the delivery of net zero and the Clean Power Mission. This will build on the successful CS-N0W programme, though with a new research scope.  It will include research on:  Metrics and thresholds to measure and monitor UK climate resilience . Assessing the climate resilience of UK mitigation policies and pathways, and levers and barriers to implementing resilience measures.  Cascading hazards and system linkages (with a focus on the UK built environment) . Modelling global mitigation and business-as-usual pathways to better understand the benefits, costs, and risks of action to reduce warming to 1.5°C or below after exceeding it as well as the impacts that are avoided and the consequences of inaction. The programme will take a whole-system approach to climate resilience and energy security, considering cross-sectoral and cross-border climate impacts on the energy and net zero system. A knowledge integration work package will provide agile policy support.  The programme will require expertise in assessing climate risk through a mixed-method and multi-disciplinary approach, across climate science, built environment and energy adaptation, economics and social science. Methods could include evidence syntheses and literature reviews, data analysis and scenario development, knowledge integration and dissemination. DESNZ anticipates a consortium of suppliers will be needed to cover the breadth of expertise required.   Outputs are likely to include reports, on-call advice and briefings, seminars and teach-ins, workshops, and scientific support. The research will be co-designed with policy focal points to inform specific policy areas and will have built-in flexibility to respond to emerging policy needs.
