This contract covers a period from 25 April 2025 to 24 April 2026, with an optional 12-month extension, and involves a call-off from the ESPO 92_21 Framework. The total contract value is estimated at £40,000. This procurement is categorised under the 'Fuels' industry and is located in the North East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement process employed a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, and the official contract award was made on 24 April 2025 to CALOR GAS LIMITED, a large-scale supplier.

The arrangement and consistent demand over the contracted period offer stability and potential growth for suppliers in this sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be well-suited to compete, especially those already familiar with framework agreements and capable of meeting the selective procurement requirements.
