Summary of the contracting process

Cumberland Council, based in Carlisle, England, sought the supply of mains gas for its corporate properties through a tender process under the service category. The procurement stage has been completed, and the contract was awarded on 31st March 2025. The awarded contract has a total value of £6,000,000 and spans from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2029. Total Energies Ltd, a large-scale company situated in Redhill, was selected as the supplier. Despite being a significant opportunity, this tender was not specifically aimed at SMEs or VCSEs, suggesting that the procurement process involved a more substantial scale and formal procedure rather than focusing on smaller enterprises.

This tender offers considerable growth opportunities for businesses involved in the energy sector, particularly those capable of supplying mains gas at a scale that meets the needs of large public bodies. Such contracts can be lucrative, offering stable income over an extended period, which is ideal for well-established companies looking to expand their public sector portfolio. Additionally, businesses with similar scale and capabilities to Total Energies Ltd could find themselves well-suited to engage in similar procurement processes, providing essential services to regional councils or other large-scale governmental entities. Pursuing such tenders can substantially elevate a company's position within the public sector market.
