Summary of the contracting process

Salix Homes Limited procured electricity supply for the communal areas of its property portfolio. This is an electricity supply contract, rather than a works or installation requirement, serving shared spaces across the portfolio. The recorded delivery location is the United Kingdom; no more specific delivery place is identified. The procurement is classified as goods and concerns the ongoing provision of electricity to communal areas.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to EDF Energy on 15 September 2026. The estimated procurement value and awarded contract value are both £933,191.44. The contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. Salix Homes used a selective procedure, making a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The published submission deadline was 30 September 2026. The process was not divided into lots. The opportunity was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. No evaluation criteria are recorded.

For suppliers considering similar future electricity requirements from Salix Homes, this award demonstrates demand for supplying power to communal areas across a property portfolio, rather than to individual household accounts. A credible competitor would need the capacity to supply the portfolio reliably and to manage a buyer-specific electricity call-off through a dynamic purchasing system. EDF Energy, a large supplier, was selected for this requirement. The scale and portfolio-wide scope indicate that suppliers need to be equipped to serve multiple communal locations under one arrangement. The procurement was identified as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so businesses in those categories should weigh that assessment when judging whether they can compete for a comparable requirement.
