Registrations are open<\/a> to attend the Digital Supplier Engagement Event for the \u2018Heat in Buildings Scotland – New National Scheme\u2019, taking place on 10 February 2022, 9am – 1.30pm. (Registrations close 3 February at 6pm)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Scottish Government intends to run a procurement exercise to appoint a Managing Agent for the delivery of the \u2018Heat in Buildings Scotland – New National Scheme\u2019 (\u201cthe Scheme\u201d). This is the successor to the Scottish Government’s current\u00a0Warmer Homes Scotland\u00a0programme<\/strong>.\u00a0Due to go live in 2023, the core of the new Scheme will target households which are in fuel poverty or at risk of being in fuel poverty.<\/p>\n

The Managing Agent will be responsible for managing the customer journey as the retrofit coordinator \u2013 this will entail identifying the measures which are suitable for the dwelling, carrying out a technical survey, installing the measures, arranging a post-installation inspection and putting in place a service warranty. The measures installed will be mainly insulation, heating and micro generation measures, with a focus on zero emissions heating systems where this is not detrimental to Scottish Government fuel poverty objectives.<\/p>\n

Although the intention is to appoint a single Managing Agent to deliver the Scheme, there is likely to be scope for sub-contractor opportunities re. the physical installation of measures across Scotland. As such, suppliers of all sizes are welcome to join the Digital Supplier Engagement Event – SMEs, Supported Businesses and third-sector organisations.<\/p>\n
