This document provides a procurement assessment for the Centre for the Development of Enterprise (CDE) based on a questionnaire. It summarizes the CDE's procurement activities over the past 5 years, including 500 market consultations, 20 tenders, and 10 calls for proposals. It then analyzes feedback from candidates on the documentation, process, offers, and contracts used in CDE procurement. While improvements have been made, areas identified for further improvement include increasing clarity of terms of reference, allowing more time for applications, and enhancing contract terms and payment procedures. The assessment aims to strengthen CDE's procurement processes.

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), in collaboration with the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS), Ofgem, and KTN would like to invite you to join an online briefing event on the 22nd September 2020 to hear about the new funding competition, Modernising Energy Data Applications and how you can get involved.

The UK has world-leading energy and environmental researchers, businesses, policy, regulation, technologies, infrastructure and innovators. We believe that integrating these through a smart local energy systems approaches will give the UK the opportunity to develop an industry built around delivering new consumer-friendly energy services and markets that are cheaper, cleaner, flexible, and more resilient to environmental and social change.
The aim of this competition is to develop world leading data applications which will help to transform our local energy systems. We are looking for projects which use cutting edge techniques and user-centric approaches, combining energy data with data from other sectors to deliver better outcomes across local areas.
