Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Indigo Swan, a buying organisation based in Norwich, has completed the tender process for the "Supply of Mains Electricity to Saffron Housing Trust x 138 NHH Meters 2025". This procurement falls under the industry category of electricity (CPV: 09310000) and is valued at £331,776, with the contract award announced on 4th February 2025. The contract, awarded to EDF Energy, will commence on 1st April 2025 and conclude on 31st March 2026, covering the East of England. This accelerated competitive procedure with negotiation aimed to mitigate risks from the rapidly fluctuating energy markets, allowing for quick response times with an expression of interest period of 15 days and a 10-day tender response period.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those in the utility supply sector that are registered with OFGEM and hold the necessary supply licenses. The contract’s estimated annual volume of 0.6 GWh and options for longer-term commitments (12, 24, and 36 months) can provide substantial and stable revenue streams. Businesses that can offer green energy solutions alongside standard supply will find this procurement particularly advantageous. Additionally, the requirements for credit check approvals, paper and online invoicing capabilities, and payment via direct debit emphasise the importance of financial stability and operational flexibility for participating companies.
