Overview
A US energy major aimed to enhance its bidding credit strategy ahead of the US North Carolina offshore wind lease auction. It wanted to ensure it received the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM)’s 20% bidding credit for committing to investments in workforce training or supply chain development.
We were asked to provide critical review, refinement, and enhancement of their US North Carolina offshore wind lease auction proposed strategy. We ensured alignment with BOEM’s requirements and maximised eligibility for the credit. We delivered insights based on our previous Building North Carolina’s Offshore Wind Supply Chain report.
Key challenges
- Ensuring conceptual strategy met BOEM’s criteria
- Evidencing procedures and commitments
- Delivering strategic input, narrative development, and document refinement
Key impact
- Identified eligibility gaps and evidencing risks
- Integrated findings from BVGA’s prior supply chain research
- Provided a complete, written conceptual strategy
- Enabled client to compete more effectively
