Summary of the contracting process

Coventry City Council conducted a selective procurement process for the supply and provision of liquid fuel under the ESPO framework agreement ref 301_22, a further competition closed in nature. This procurement, identified by the tender ID COV15311, falls under the industry category of petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy, with the delivery location specified as the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The procurement was completed, with key dates being the tender period ending on 27 January 2023, and the contract period running from 14 February 2023 to 30 September 2024, potentially extending up to 30 September 2026. The award, valued at £4,000,000, was published on 16 February 2023, with Certas Energy UK Limited appointed as the supplier.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for large, established suppliers of petroleum products and fuel. The nature of the process, being a call-off from a framework agreement, suggests suitability for companies that are well-versed in working within pre-defined frameworks and can provide competitive offers within closed procurement environments. Although the tender is closed and not open to SMEs or VCSEs, large businesses with existing capabilities in the transport and energy sectors can benefit from the substantial contract value and the potential extension providing continuity and long-term engagement. Coventry City Council's structured approach through selective procurement ensures participants with established credentials in the industry category can efficiently fulfil the requirements and create sustained growth opportunities in the West Midlands region.
