Technical requirements: The objective of this framework contract is to provide the Member States contributing to the DEMC II Project Arrangement with a developmental educational service specific to the Defence sector and with hand s­on application/implementation to specific military sites. The Defence Energy Managers’ Course will increase knowledge and improve energy management in defence, resulting in benefits in terms of energy consumption, cost, and CO2 emission reductions. It should also contribute to reducing exposure to volatile energy prices, improving security of supply, increase operational capabilities, and reduce risk associated with energy supply in the armed forces. Within the Course, an average of two Trainings per year for a period of four years will be delivered. Each of the training editions is, for the purpose of the contract, called a “Training”. For the purpose of these tender specifications, the Defence Sector relates to both Ministries of Defence and Armed Forces and applies to fixed infrastructure, operational environments and military platforms and systems. The aim of the DEMC II Trainings is to enhance participant’s understanding of the complexities of managing energy within an organisation or sub­organisation and illustrate how to structure an effective energy management system and programme. Participants will learn how to systematically, incrementally and continuously improve their organisation’s energy performance each year through effective through life management, planning, design, procurement, dual­ use research, monitoring and measurement. The course will aim to establish a pool of experts, trained to a common standard. Through attendance of the agreed DEMC II Trainings, the participants will be trained to the required technical standard to deliver practical, cost ­effective solutions and, uniquely, will benefit from case­ specific mentoring support to their first project delivered within the context of their normal work activities. After the Training, they should have sufficient knowledge to further develop their skills in a continuous cycle of self ­improvement through on­going mentoring, with permanent access to its established on­line resources.
