Notice Information
Notice Title
Energy Trading and Risk Management (ETRM) System
Notice Description
The Energy Trading and Risk Management system (ETRM) was used by Trading and Risk to manage the CCS energy portfolio for more than 1,200 customers across the Public Sector with a total spend of more than PS1.5 billion per annum. The Energy Trading and Risk Management system (ETRM) was used to record trade and demand forecasts, calculate open positions and valuations based on market prices, and serves as Trading and Risk's 'single source of truth' for portfolio reporting and information. CCS was seeking to replace its current ETRM by sourcing a replacement, cloud based system. This was an off-the-shelf ready to deploy software procurement, rather than a software development project. The ETRM would support CCS's ability to provide its customers with risk managed products for power and gas. Additional information: Pursuant to termination detailed within the modification notice published on 24/09/2025, this contract is awarded to the supplier ranked second in RM6385 in replacement to ensure continuation of service. The Contract will be established for 24 months with the option for us to extend for 3 12 month periods (2+1+1+1).
