Summary of the contracting process

The Leicestershire County Council, based in England, has completed a tender process titled "HVO Liquid Fuels- April -May 2026" under the industry category of petroleum products and other sources of energy. This procurement, which was initiated with a focus on the most economically viable tender, concluded on 27 March 2026. The procurement, involving the delivery of goods, was conducted through an unspecified procurement method and attracted submissions from three suppliers. Crown Oil Ltd, a large-scale supplier, was awarded the contract, which will commence on 30 March 2026 and run until 11 May 2026, with an agreed contract value of £56,700. The procurement stage has now advanced to the award stage, marking its completion.

This tender represents a lucrative opportunity for large businesses in the energy sector, especially those specialising in the supply of petroleum products and fuels. The focus on price competitiveness suggests that suppliers capable of offering cost-effective solutions will flourish in similar tenders. While this contract was not deemed suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, future similar opportunities could potentially benefit from the participation of a diverse range of large firms looking to establish or expand their market presence in the UK's energy supply sector.
