P3O Consultancy Provision

The Coal Authority (The Authority/TCA) was established by Parliament to undertake specific statutory duties, set out in the Coal Industry Act 1994, associated with licensing coal mining operations; managing property and the historic legacy arising from the ownership of the coal reserves and underground workings; settling subsidence damage claims not falling on coal mine operators and providing access to coal mining information.

It employs 240, based mainly at the head office in Mansfield with some field staff remotely based in order to enable a fast response to incidents in the coal mining areas.

The Authority is funded by Grant-in-Aid from the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS). The Authority takes pride in its achievements, quality and motivation of staff, and is focused on delivering its high level objectives.

As a non-departmental public body of BEIS, The Authority provides services to governments, public bodies, private organisations and landowners. We also regulate the coal industry in Britain and manage the long term mining legacy approaching £3 billion.

Our strategy is to develop our business by realising the value from our people and information, and to seek to continuously improve our capabilities by innovation, organisation capability, efficiency and quality, whilst remaining focused on delivering safely and conserving the environment.

The Coal Authority is seeking to engage a contractor for the provision of services to support the implementation of a Portfolio, Programme and Project Office (P3O) function at the Coal Authority.
