Where it is relevant and proportionate to include a requirement for adaptation to climate change, it is important to be explicit in the contract notice and/or market engagement as well as being clear on the parameters to be used for evaluation.
Within Annex 3 are examples of climate change adaptation wording that may be used for this purpose.
These examples focus on adaptation and supply resilience objectives that may feature within a Contracting Authority’s climate change ambitions and give the market early sight of minimum requirements.
