Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process is led by Ofgem, with a tender titled "2021-036 ITT - Online Company Information Checks" focused on research services, specifically for financial auditing. This initiative is currently in the active tender stage, with a submission deadline set for 31st March 2021. The estimated contract value is £8,000, and the contract period is scheduled to commence on 19th June 2021 and run until 18th June 2023. The service aims to assist Ofgem in verifying details of companies and individuals applying for gas and electricity licences, with delivery locations spanning the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, and the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in research and financial auditing services. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete, given the procurement method is an open procedure targeting lower-value contracts. The ability to offer efficient, reliable company verification services could lead to significant growth possibilities within the energy sector, driven by the growing regulatory requirements for licensing and compliance checks.
