The City aims to partner with a software provider to support management of utility spend and consumption, with the ultimate aim of reducing cost and carbon. This will support Climate Action Strategy (CAS) goals and objectives of Net Zero in our own operations by 2027. The following represent essential requirements which must be met by the supplier, who must be able to provide and manage both software solutions and invoice validation services. 1. Provide invoice validation services. This includes utilities on the City's corporate contracts and ad-hoc supplies. All invoices must be loaded by the contractor into the software. 2. Provide easily accessible and customizable dashboards for cost, consumption and carbon based on portfolio, site, utility, meter level and Fund. 3. Provide high consumption notifications for any utility/site/meter, based on invoice or HH data. 4. Ensure customer satisfaction by allocating a dedicated account manager and accountability for KPI performance. 5. Invoices to Accounts payable are provided in a file format requested by the City in order to upload to the City's payment system (SAP). This must be completed for all utilities including electricity, gas, district heating/cooling and water. The City is seeking a software that will leverage recent advances in technology to support energy and cost reduction, along with improved access of resources. To support energy reduction, alerts must be configured to notify the user of high or low consumption. To minimise costs, reports must be generated based on elements of supplier invoices (i.e, standing charges, CCL, water and sewerage).  To improve City resource use, the City wishes to use the software for tenant recharging for the first time. This must be completed by, at a minimum, subtracting submeters from the main fiscal meter.   The City wishes to form a strong partnership with a provider who is eager to support the City's ambitious climate goals by freeing up City's resources to pursue energy opportunities, rather than day-to-day administrative tasks such as updating meter serial numbers in the database and chasing suppliers for costs.  This tendering exercise is being undertaken using the electronic tendering system ‘City of London Corporation Sourcing & Contracts Portal’ (https://cityoflondon.ukp.app.jaggaer.com/) Suppliers will need to register an interest on the system in order to participate and registration is free. The estimated contract value given at sections 31 and 32 is for the full duration of the contract including the maximum possible extensions. The estimated annual contract value is therefore £112500 exc. VAT
