Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the supply of electricity to Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council has been completed. The contract, valued at £2,000,000, was awarded to ESB Electric Ireland Ltd. This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically within the electricity industry. The arrangement was reviewed and will remain in effect until at least 31st March 2023. This tender was initiated through a limited procurement method, necessitated by extreme market volatility which prevented the acceptance of competitive bids.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the energy sector, especially those capable of supplying electricity under changing market conditions. Companies experienced in negotiating fixed-price contracts or working within frameworks that accommodate fluctuations in pricing and availability would be particularly suited to compete in future tenders. Engaging with the council and understanding their energy needs could yield substantial business growth for suitable suppliers looking to establish long-term relationships with public sector clients.
