Lewisham Council wishes to enter into a framework agreement with a partner or partners to access funding and deliver energy efficiency installations under the Energy Company Obligation (ECO). The framework agreement is intended to ensure Lewisham residents benefit from ECO by maximising the level of funding brought into the borough and can also be used by Registered Providers working within Lewisham, as well as neighbouring South East London boroughs.
The Contractor would be expected to build upon our existing successful projects and partnerships across the borough and in particular planned investment in our social housing stock managed.
The framework agreement also covers energy efficiency and carbon reduction activity funded from outside ECO that would be expected to be of mutual benefit. This could include, but is not limited to:
— Installing domestic energy efficiency measures funded from sources accessed by the Contractor, the Council or elsewhere.
— Providing market leading offers to ‘able to pay’ customers, including activity linked to the Green Deal.
— Energy and fuel poverty related advice services.
— Non-domestic energy efficiency works, for example on Council properties, schools, hostels and sheltered housing and so on.
— Promotion and installation of renewable technologies.

The Framework Agreement will be a single provider framework agreement and is being procured by the London Borough of Lewisham. Once the framework agreement has been set up and a contractor appointed onto the framework agreement, other Local Authorities in the South East London sub-region and any Registered Social Landlords with housing stock in the sub-region (“Buyers”) will be able to access the framework agreement. This will be achieved through an Access Agreement to be signed by the London Borough of Lewisham and the accessing party. The Buyers shall include:
— Any registered social landlords with housing stock in the London Borough of Lewisham.
— The London Borough of Bexley and any registered social landlords with housing stock in Bexley.
— The London Borough of Bromley and any registered social landlords with housing stock in Bromley.
— The London Borough of Southwark and any registered social landlords with housing stock in Southwark.
— The London Borough of Greenwich and any registered social landlords with housing stock in Greenwich.
— South East London Housing Partnership (SELHP).
Should any Participating Authority decide to use the Framework Agreement each will enter into an Access Agreement with the Council and the Contractor which will allow each of the Participating Authorities to enter into a call-off contract under the Framework Agreement to enable them to have a direct relationship with the Contractor.
