Summary of the contracting process

The Walsall Metropolitan Borough Council is currently seeking bids for an "Energy Bureau and Brokerage" service under an open procurement process. The contract, valued at £50,000, will span three years, commencing on 1st June 2019, with an option for a one-year extension. The staged mobilisation will see the bureau services initiate in June 2019, while the brokerage services will commence shortly thereafter, allowing newly procured energy supplies (gas and electricity) to begin in April 2020. The deadline for submissions is 29th March 2019, and the relevant procurement falls under the Administration Services category.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for energy service providers, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to engage with the local authority on a long-term basis. Providers who specialize in energy procurement, bill validation, monitoring, and reporting services will be particularly well-suited to compete. Given the collaborative nature desired by the council, businesses that can showcase their expertise and ability to deliver comprehensive energy management solutions will have a competitive edge in this procurement process.
