Summary of the contracting process

The National Audit Office (NAO) has completed a selective procurement process to award a contract for the provision of utilities services, specifically electricity, with a total value of £800,000. The contract has been awarded to EDF Energy Limited, covering services in the Public Utilities category for the United Kingdom. The procurement process proceeded through a call-off from a framework agreement, with key deadlines including the tender period ending on 14 November 2024 and the awarded contract's publication on 5 December 2024. The contract period is set to start on 1 April 2025 and end on 31 March 2026.

This tender represents significant growth opportunities for businesses in the utilities sector, though it is best suited for larger scale enterprises given the NAO's specified contract requirements and procurement method. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) were not indicated as suitable for this tender. Businesses involved in large-scale electricity supply and management would find this contract beneficial in solidifying their market presence and capability within the public sector.
