Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Hertfordshire County Council focused on the supply of batteries, particularly under the title "HCC – 02/21 – The Supply of Batteries". This tender was classified under the goods category, specifically for primary batteries and included two lots: branded and unbranded batteries. The procurement method adopted was an open procedure, which means it was accessible to all interested parties. The tender period had a deadline for bid submission set for 8 March 2021, and successful contracts were awarded on 15 June 2021, with an estimated total contract value of £420,000.

This tender creates opportunities for businesses specialising in battery supply, particularly those dealing with branded and unbranded products. Suppliers with experience in industrial battery solutions, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs), would find this contract appealing due to the potential for continued engagement through the framework agreement that allows for extensions based on performance. Businesses should ensure their capabilities align with the required quality and pricing criteria, particularly as 80% of the award decision was based on price.
