Summary

Machine-generated summary

ECMWF, based in Germany, is procuring research and development services to create an event-linked counterfactual diagnostic evidence layer supporting the C3S Operational Attribution Office. Using ECMWF forecasts and reanalysis products, the supplier will derive event-specific diagnostics showing how extreme events might differ without human-induced climate change. No new large-scale climate simulations will be run. A single Framework Agreement of up to 18 months will be awarded, implemented via one multi-annual service contract starting around Q1 2027. No estimated value or submission deadline is stated in the notice. Tenderers must propose a scientifically robust, operationally feasible, reproducible and transparent methodology, with a handover package for future operational use.

Description

The aim of this ITT is to develop an event-linked counterfactual evidence layer to support the C3S Operational Attribution Office. Using ECMWF forecasts and reanalysis products, it will derive event-specific counterfactual diagnostics that provide additional evidence on how the intensity, probability or other characteristics of observed extreme events may have differed in the absence of human-induced climate change. ECMWF intends to award a single Framework Agreement, with a maximum duration of 18 months, which shall be implemented via a single multi-annual Service Contract, expected to commence at the beginning of Q1 2027. This ITT aims to develop a methodological framework and supporting procedures for generating event-conditioned diagnostic evidence for high-impact extreme events by assessing how key characteristics of observed present-day events would differ under counterfactual climate conditions without anthropogenic warming. Tenderers must propose a scientifically robust and operationally feasible approach, including an assessment of data availability, computational requirements, reproducibility, interpretability and delivery timelines, while confirming that no new large-scale climate or weather model simulations will be undertaken. The successful tenderer will, in consultation with C3S, establish quality requirements and an evaluation methodology to assess the physical consistency, robustness, reproducibility, transparency and limitations of the derived evidence, and will provide a comprehensive handover package to support future operational or pre-operational implementation.
