UK Shared Business Services Limited awarded a contract to Turner and Townsend Project Management Limited for the Scheme Administrator for Technical Assistance Facility Bridge (TAF Bridge).

The contract, valued at £4,950,000, was awarded via the CCS Heat Networks and Electricity Generation Assets Dynamic Purchasing System.

The TAF Bridge provides technical support to Registered Providers (RPs) of Social Housing, including Private and Local Authority Providers, in their applications to the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF).

The main objectives are to build RP capability and capacity to decarbonise their stock, including applications for Wave 2.1, and to develop a robust pipeline of high-quality applications for Wave 2.1 and the early stages of Wave 2.2.

Other objectives include targeting less engaged regions of England, supporting smaller organisations to level up the social housing sector, assisting RPs not ready for Wave 2.1 to apply for Wave 2.2, supporting landlords to support tenants throughout the retrofitting process, and building RPs to utilise and procure a viable supply chain.
