Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Leicestershire County Council involves the direct award of a contract for the supply of mains gas under the ESPO single supplier framework agreement 192_27. Classified under "services" in the industry category of mains gas (CPV code: 09121200), the procurement was completed on 13th March 2026, with the contract awarded to Total Energies Ltd. The contract period extends from 1st April 2027 to 31st March 2031, covering locations within the United Kingdom. This direct award method indicates an expedited procurement pathway, valued at £3,000,000.

This tender creates significant business opportunities for suppliers in the energy sector, particularly those capable of providing large-scale gas supply services across the UK. Although not suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), large companies with robust infrastructure and capacities to deliver on substantial contracts stand poised to benefit. As Leicestershire County Council aims to ensure a reliable mains gas supply, businesses that can offer competitive pricing and sustainability in energy solutions would be well-positioned to engage with such public sector contracts in the future.
