Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by ESPO (the Eastern Shires Purchasing Organisation), focuses on establishing a single supplier framework for the supply of mains gas across England, Scotland, and Wales. The tender, titled "192_23 Mains Gas," is classified under the goods category and has a contract value of £248 million. This active procurement, governed by the open procedure, has a contract period starting from 1st April 2023 to 31st March 2027. The tender period ended on 12th February 2021, and it included a 10-day standstill period for review procedures.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in the energy supply sector, to engage with public bodies such as local authorities, NHS entities, and various educational institutions. Companies with experience in supplying gas and meeting regulatory requirements, including those with a valid supply licence granted by OFGEM, are well-suited to compete. The successful bidder may also have the chance to enter into a separate commercial framework agreement with ESPO Trading Limited, potentially expanding their market reach within the third sector.

Notice Information

Notice Title

192_23 Mains Gas

Notice Description

To establish a single supplier framework available for use throughout England Scotland and Wales for the supply of Mains Gas. ESPO has established a commercial trading company, ESPO Trading Limited, whose target clients are third sector organisations such as national and local charities, public sector mutual organisations and other organisations involved in the delivery of services to or for the public sector. The successful Supplier may be asked to enter into an additional separate framework agreement (the Second Framework) with ESPO Trading Limited on materially similar terms to that found in the tender pack to be entered into by ESPO itself. Any Second Framework agreement will be a purely commercial agreement and will, for the avoidance of doubt, not be governed by the Public Contract Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. ESPO Trading Limited may enter into the second framework agreement with the successful supplier and make it available to third sector clients who themselves are not required to follow the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. Accordingly, this is provided for bidders' information only.
