Main Site : Brussels

The European Commission is publishing this invitation to tender for services to conclude a contract with a service provider (or consortium) to manage the marketplace of the EIP-SCC.

The selected service provider will help the European Commission and the EIP-SCC constituency (public authorities at EU, national and local level as well as the industry and the research and financing community) to push forward the implementation agenda of the EIP-SCC:

— expanding the Matchmaking activities and increasing the conversion rate drastically to foster market uptake and to supplement the EU's funding activities in the sector,

— going well beyond the roadmap 2017 in terms of number of cities involved (300) and investments issued (1 000 000 000 EUR): the tenderer will establish a new roadmap with clear milestones and deliverables for the contract period and a solid outlook for the time after,

— likewise supporting the implementation of the roadmaps of the EIP-SCC initiatives.

The expected task portfolio includes, but is not limited to:

— Programme Management Office support to the EIP-SCC, its Action Clusters and their initiatives,

— back office for the matchmaking process and platform,

— further expansion of the Matchmaking facility to become the go-to-place for developing, financing, implementing and replicating smart city projects,

— direct and personal support to the (voluntary) lead persons of the respective Action Clusters and initiatives,

— close cooperation with the covenant of mayors office, the Smart Cities Information System (SCIS), the CIVITAS Initiative, the Green Digital Charter and other relevant EU initiatives,

— enabling the EIP-SCC Marketplace to perform its tasks efficiently and effectively by organising meetings and gathering and summarising the input of its members into high quality documents, focused on the crucial actions and deliverables that support the implementation of the EIP-SCC Roadmap,

— maintaining a close relationship between the actors of the EIP-SCC Marketplace, the various stakeholders (including public authorities) and the European Commission by means of regular meetings and reporting,

— provide timely and well-structured feedback to the European Commission to further develop and implement the EIP-SCC roadmap and for the implementation plan of the SET-Plan Key Action 3 in the field of Smart Cities and Communities,

— efficiently and effectively promoting the activities of the EIP-SCC Marketplace and disseminating their outcome, including inter alia professionally edited and high added value newsletter,

— overhauling and constantly improving the web site of the EIP-SCC Marketplace (including the matchmaking platform) by integrating state-of-the -art (and beyond) collaboration and networking tools,

— takeover of the entire SCIS service portfolio, using a maximum of existing and future synergies, by the end of the current SCIS contract period in October 2020,

— as part of the latter merging the web site of the EIP-SCC Marketplace with the web site and database frontend of the Smart Cities Information System (SCIS), including takeover of the database management,

— giving concrete advice for future activities of the EIP-SCC,

— organisation of high-level conferences, workshops and meetings with high participation numbers, aiming at supporting and multiplying above listed objectives,

— provision of tailor-made dissemination tools and strategies to reach out to all potential stakeholders including the broader public.

To make sure that the EIP-SCC and its core activities (such as the Matchmaking and the EIP-SCC initiatives) are supported in the best possible way allocation of sufficient high quality and experienced human resources is indispensable.

The expected services shall cover the European Union, its Member States, its local communities as well as associated countries under the EU's Framework Programmes FP7, Horizon 2020 and from 2021 onwards Horizon Europe.
