Notice Title

YPO - 000791 The Flexible Procurement and Supply of Electricity for NHH, HH and UMS

Notice Description

YPO are looking for a Supplier to be appointed onto a Framework Agreement for the supply of non-half hourly, half hourly and unmetered electricity supplies, as well as related ancillary services, primarily for use in the local authority sector, education sector and emergency services sector. This Framework is designed to meet the needs of both YPO and Other Contracting Authorities by establishing an agreement where the end customer will enter into an electricity supply agreement with the supplier and the supplier will supply electricity, as well as any ancillary services that the customer requires, direct to the end customer. Additional information: To see the documentation, please go online to: https://tendering.ypo.co.uk/procontract/ypo/supplier.nsf/frm_supplier_registrati on_wizard_introduction?openform and 'Register as a Supplier'. 1. Click on the appropriate tender under 'Latest Opportunities' 2. Click the "Register Interest" button which is located under the "Main Contract Detail" 3. Click on 'ok' 4. Return back to the home page and select the "My Opportunities" link, located on the right hand side of your home page. 5. Select the link to the tender 6. Select "view stage detail" and download the documents for response. The terms and price structures of the Framework Agreement will be agreed between YPO and the preferred bidder. YPO will mutually agree the Framework Terms and Conditions with the preferred bidder. It is a pre-requisite that some public sector boiler plate clauses will need to be included. If terms and conditions cannot be agreed between the parties within one month of being notified of preferred bidder status YPO reserve the right not to award the Contract with the preferred bidder and to negotiate terms and conditions with the provider offering the next most economically advantageous tender. The Supplier must adhere to all KPIs as these will form part of the final framework agreement. The final column in Appendix B details the number of failures within a specified period which amounts to a repeated failure. A repeated failure shall be deemed to constitute a breach of contract and the escalation procedure must be enacted. The escalation points and timescales must be agreed and detailed in the framework agreement - this will consist of three escalation stages, after which YPO may implement an option to terminate the contract The local authorities and public sector bodies who use this framework will sign the supplier's pre-approved contract and the supplier will then manage this contract to pre-determined Key Performance Indicators. Tenderers should be aware that the Transfer of Undertakings Protection of Employment (TUPE) regulations may apply to this Framework Agreement. TUPE is a matter between the Tenderer and the incumbent supplier. The relevant contact details at the incumbent supplier are provided below. The incumbent supplier will respond to a Tenderer query providing information appropriate for this stage of the tender process.
