B-Brussels: analysis of market barriers to cost-effective GHG emission reductions in the maritime transport sector
Analysis of market barriers to cost-effective GHG emission reductions in the maritime transport sector. The objective of this service contract is to provide a detailed analysis of the market barriers that prevent the uptake of negative marginal cost abatement opportunities to reduce GHG emissions from maritime transport, and potential measures to remove or overcome these barriers, in particular: — report on technological/operational solutions which could lead to cost-effective GHG and black carbon emissions reduction which are not (sufficiently) implemented, — identify the market barriers in the maritime sectors, and in a wider context to the extent such barriers influence the maritime sectors, the relevant actors. Present the extent of the problems surrounding barriers and their impact on ships' efficiency in a low carbon perspective as well as shipping transport costs, — report on existing practices and measures that have contributed to removing market barriers for the shipping sector, — identify potential measures to be taken to remove or overcome barriers, including incentives to implement these measures, — assess the economic, social and environmental impacts of those potential measures, including an evaluation of potential reductions and savings for each measure, — compare and rank measures according to a number of criteria, — report and disseminate findings to stakeholders, — the role of monitoring emissions in raising awareness of emissions and thereby bring about cost-effective emission reductions, drawing on examples in other sectors (aviation, energy intensive industries), — the role of increased economic incentives in bringing about cost-effective emission reductions, — the possible role of targeted financial support in the private sector for overcoming barriers, — the possible role of targeted financial support to the public sector for overcoming barriers, — the role of private sector and public/private partnership initiatives in overcoming these barriers. The end product of the contract will be an analysis of the market barriers to the implementation of cost-effective GHG emission reductions in shipping as well as possible measures to address these market barriers. The report is to provide a basis for possible further proposals for the purpose of reducing GHG emissions from maritime transport. CPV: 90700000. ...


B-Brussels: study on employment policy priorities including development of a methodological capacity to strengthen the employment dimension of the EU 2020 agenda
Study on employment policy priorities including development of a methodological capacity to strengthen the employment dimension of the EU 2020 agenda. The purpose of this study is twofold: — to provide the Commission with a proposal for an economic model or framework to help rank the urgency of action in key employment policy areas at the Member State and EU levels. This proposal should identify policy areas representing the most significant potential in terms of growth and jobs within Member States and the EU level. Criteria for policy assessment should also be formulated, including theoretical and empirical guidance for assessing policy response in these different key policy areas, — to provide the Commission with a proposal for a transparent assessment methodology to evaluate and determine Member State and EU progress made within the employment field of the new EU 2020 strategy. The purpose of this task is to analyse and provide an overall approach for how yearly progress towards employment (and social) objectives within a new strategy can be monitored and evaluated in a transparent, comparable and justifiable manner. A concrete set of adequate assessment indicators should be proposed, building on the indicators already existing within the European Employment Strategy. CPV: 73210000, 73220000. ...

UK-Penryn: construction work
Convergence Funded Works to provide enabling works on the Tremough Campus. (1) It was noted in contract notice 2010/S 208-317483 that TDV was voluntarily publishing that contract notice in the Supplement to the Official Journal of the European Union. Further, please note that TDV is voluntarily publishing this contract award notice. TDV was not required to publish contract notice 2010/S 208-317483, and is not required to publish this contract award notice, under the UK and EU rules governing public procurement since the estimated contract value of the proposed enabling works contract fell, and still falls, under the financial threshold for application of the EU and UK procurement rules for a works contract. TDV structured the procurement of a contractor to provide enabling works on the Tremough Campus in line with the general principles of EU law, but was not bound by any of the other EU or UK rules concerning public procurement. TDV stated in contract notice 2010/S 208-317483 that it did not intend to be contractually bound in any way by any of the other EU or UK rules concerning public procurement that did not / do not apply to it. Nonetheless, TDV intended, and intends, to be transparent and to run the procedure as outlined in contract notice 2010/S 208-317483 and the tender documents. TDV accordingly stated, for convenience only, in section IV.1.1 of contract notice 2010/S 208-317483, and in section IV.1.1 of this contract award notice, that the procurement will be run / was run under the open procedure. TDV intended to model the procurement of this contract opportunity on the open procedure, but stated in contract notice 2010/S 208-317483 that it would only be bound by the specific rules contained in the EU and UK rules concerning public procurement regarding the open procedure to the extent set out in contract notice 2010/S 208-317483 and the tender documents. (2) The Tremough Development Vehicle Limited ("TDV") is indirectly a 50:50 joint venture company of the University of Exeter ("UoE") and the University College Falmouth ("UCF"). The Tremough Campus in Penryn, near Falmouth, is shared by UoE and UCF and TDV is responsible for building developments on the campus and managing all live construction projects. (3) The development of the Tremough Campus since 2004 has involved the procurement and construction of a major 17,000 square metre (approximately) main campus academic building, a further academic building of approximately 6 500 square metres and residences to accommodate over 1 200 students on campus, as well as some refurbishments of existing buildings on the Tremough Campus.
