It is good practice to notify bidders of any particular contract performance requirements or any essential award criteria early in the process.
This can be done by including details in the contract notice. These can be included at section V1.3 Additional Information of the Contract Notice.
Where it is relevant and proportionate to include a requirement for adaptation to climate change, it is important to be clear on the parameters to be used. Assessment should be done on a like for like basis to ensure results are comparable.
Within the Annex are examples of climate change adaptation wording that may be used for this purpose.
These focus on adaptation objectives within a Contracting Authority’ climate change ambitions while also giving early sight of minimum requirements.
