This initiative aims to establish a framework agreement for supplying fuels such as heating oil, automotive fuel, and marine fuel to central government organisations and the wider public sector across the UK, including Northern Ireland. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, and the open procedure will be employed to invite bids, with an anticipated budget of £225 million for the period from 2017 to 2018. Key details include a contract period scheduled to commence on 24th July 2017 and ending on 23rd August 2021.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in fuel supply, transportation services, and ancillary services related to fuel management, such as tank maintenance and cleaning. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this opportunity particularly accessible as it encourages participation from a diverse range of suppliers. Businesses equipped to deliver various fuel types or associated services are well-suited to compete in this procurement process, ultimately aiming to support the public sector's fuel requirements effectively and sustainably.
