GLA Third Party Resident Support

The procurement contact named on the official notice.

The GLA is delivering the Warm Homes: Local Grant Programme in partnership with 30 London boroughs.

To strengthen delivery, the GLA is exploring running a pilot project to better understand how community organisations can support vulnerable residents throughout the retrofit process.

The aim is to improve the resident experience and reduce dropout rates.

Identification of eligible households and installation of measures will be managed by the GLA and its delivery partners.

Community organisations would focus on resident‑facing support, from initial engagement through to installation.

For example, this could include helping vulnerable residents understand their energy assessment, providing tailored advice on recommended measures, supporting form-filling, offering in‑home or remote guidance during installation, and ensuring residents feel informed and confident throughout the process.

This preliminary engagement seeks to understand capacity, capability, delivery models, and potential challenges within the market.

It may be undertaken in multiple stages following completion of the questionnaire stage.

Insights will inform the future procurement strategy, including potential commissioning options.

Approach To shape the design and delivery of the pilot project, we invite organisations to complete a short questionnaire.

The purpose of this exercise is to gather market insights on: Potential service delivery models Capacity and readiness to deliver Opportunities and challenges within the supply chain Considerations for future procurement (Note: we are not seeking to duplicate existing services.

Instead, we aim to fill gaps in provision.

For example, where organisations currently offer telephone advice funded through other schemes but cannot provide in‑home energy advice or hands‑on resident support.) This exercise is for information‑gathering only.

It does not constitute a commitment to procure, and participation will not preclude suppliers from future procurement opportunities.
