Contract on delivery of Controversial Weapons ESG Data to ATP 2024

Short description

ATP wishes to strengthen its ESG risk screening and asset management processes and is looking for controversial weapons data that fits ATP’s ambition to increasingly in-house its ESG data management.

Specifically, ATP is searching for data on companies’ involvement in controversial weapons which can aid ATP in assessing whether or not the company is adhering to ATP’s policy on controversial weapons.

The data should include a comprehensive range of controversial weapons types, and should have substantial coverage of both listed and unlisted companies.

The data solution should also accommodate ATP’s desire to in-house all ESG risk/data monitoring and management. It should therefore offer regular (e.g. quarterly) data delivery and specify whether the company's products are crucial for lethal weapon use, designed specifically for such weapons, and whether the company is directly or indirectly involved through subsidiaries or parent companies.

The successful bid will ideally become ATP’s primary ESG tool to monitor and screen companies’ involvement in controversial weapons. Therefore, it is a requirement that the vendor has extensive experience (minimum 10 years) in working with and delivering controversial weapons data to large institutional investors. It is also required that ATP can vet the vendor’s assessments of a company’s involvement by being able to identify and preferably access the sources behind.

The contract will become effective on November 1st, 2024.

The chosen vendor will invoice ATP electronically and receive payment electronically. Further the vendor will be required to provide an invoice containing specific information to aid ATP's monitoring of contract expenses.
