Ofgem’s RIIO-3 determination funds five years of grid investment — and raises the bar on who can prove they’ll deliver it. Before a bid, a connection, a partner or an audit tests your position, we read the whole record behind it — ownership, contracts, capacity, finance, compliance — and give you a defensible, source-cited read on where it holds, and where it doesn't.
Decision-grade · built to a reliance-bearing standard · conflict-walled
We publish the standard we work to. We never publish the method.
A developer or EPC weighing a bid, a connection or a second source · a generator, network or system operator who can’t see past tier-1 · a board or investment committee facing a decision too big to get wrong · an infrastructure fund or corporate-development team pricing an energy target · a developer or OEM choosing who to team or connect with · or a project-finance lender or energy underwriter pricing a position you can’t see inside.
Whichever energy decision is in front of you, we settle it as a single, defensible Evidence Pack — a source-cited read you can take to a board, an investment committee, a regulator or a lender. Pick the one that’s yours. Supply-chain exposure runs through several of them; it is never the whole of it.
Win the work — and hold it
Can you prove the supply chain behind this bid or connection will hold — before you commit to deliver it?
The sub-tier dependency that turns a winning bid into a project you can’t energise on time — invisible from inside your own programme.
Bid Evidence PackTypical reader: capture lead / project director.
Is a supplier you depend on already on a path to failure — and would you see it before it stops you?
The distress, the ownership change, the stalled connection forming deep in your chain — read on the public record, not forecast.
Supplier Watch Evidence PackTypical reader: supply-chain & procurement director.
Should you second-source this before a single supplier can halt a project?
The sole-source or foreign-controlled part — transformers, HVDC cable, inverters, permanent magnets — that one event could put out of reach.
Second-Source Evidence PackTypical reader: procurement / operations director.
If a lender, an offtaker or a regulator asked tomorrow, could you prove your chain is clean — on the clock you’re already on?
Forced-labour, cyber-resilience and sanctions obligations that bind several tiers below you, ahead of dated deadlines.
Compliance Evidence PackTypical reader: compliance & assurance lead.
Commit to a partner or a market
Does this partner, JV or connection counterparty have the capacity — and the clean ownership — to be worth committing to before you sign?
The hidden parent, the adverse control chain, the sanctions or screening exposure — traced before it surfaces mid-project.
Teaming Evidence PackTypical reader: developer / OEM partnerships lead.
Is there a defensible position in this market — or is the ground already held?
Where capability and demand are concentrating before the auction or connection window opens — and who already owns the lane you’re eyeing.
Market Entry Evidence PackTypical reader: strategy / corporate development.
Put capital behind it
Is this borrower’s or project’s order book as solid as the model assumes?
The dependency under an energy borrower a credit file won’t surface — supply-chain exposure, never a market, price or return call.
Lending Evidence PackTypical reader: project-finance lender / credit.
What is your real exposure to a failure deep in a chain you can’t currently see?
The concentrated single point underneath an insured asset or programme — counted as separate risks when it’s really one.
Underwriting Evidence PackTypical reader: energy & specialty underwriter.
What dependency and ownership risk are you really buying inside this target?
The concealed concentration a vendor data room won’t surface — supply-chain dependency, never price or return.
Acquisition Evidence PackTypical reader: corporate-development / infrastructure-fund deal team.
This case study shows how a named public proof surface changes the question a buyer can ask before committing.
Named problem: a funded connection still turns on transformer, HVDC and queue-position evidence that can sit outside the bid file.
Public proof surface: Ofgem determinations, NESO connection-queue records, Companies House filings, Contracts Finder and UK sanctions records.
Decision impact: the project team can decide whether to bid, second-source, or alter the connection plan before the clock is fixed.
Read the energy case study →Whichever decision you bring, the Evidence Pack has the same shape. You can hand it to a board and defend every line of it.
The specimen is redacted — it shows the form and the rigour without exposing a position or our method.
The Lansary Standard is published as the bar this work is built to meet. It is not yet adopted as an external mandate, and no read shown is a live, conferred finding.
The credibility is the standard, published — not a claim about it.
Every Evidence Pack is built to it, and every claim traces to the public record. You see the standard. You never see the method — that is the protection. (Published as the bar the work is built to meet; not yet adopted as an external mandate.) Read the Standard →
What you get is one defensible read on what your position actually depends on — dated, source-cited, and reached the same way every time, so it holds up to the board, the regulator or the lender who will test it. Never a black-box score.
The independence isn’t a claim — it’s borrowed from the record. We anchor to the public registers an energy buyer already trusts: Companies House and the PSC register, Ofgem and NESO’s published registers, Contracts Finder and Find a Tender, the UK Sanctions List. You can tell an intelligence house by what it refuses: no score, no forecast, no client names, no “how it works”.
What you bring stays in confidence under NDA. Your suppliers, partners and targets are never named to anyone; anything we reference publicly is unnamed and aggregate.
Read by an operator, not just a machine.
30+ years across aerospace · defence · logistics operations — the warrant for the judgement beneath the evidence.
A scoping conversation, in confidence. We tell you whether it’s a question we can settle, to what grade, and on what terms — before any commitment.
One independent evidence house. Sector-native doors.
