Summary of the contracting process

The Wyre Council has recently awarded a contract for the supply of mains gas to ENGIE Gas Limited. The procurement stage was completed following a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract was signed on 27th April 2022, with a total value of £456,604. The opportunity was in the goods category, with the main procurement category being goods. This contract was deemed necessary due to extreme urgency in response to the volatility in the energy market.

This tender for the supply of gas provides opportunities for businesses involved in the energy sector, particularly those offering gas supply services. It highlights the importance of responding quickly to market changes in the energy industry. Companies with experience in providing mains gas supply services and those capable of meeting the stringent criteria for extreme urgency contracts would be well-suited to compete for similar tenders in the future, ensuring business growth and potential long-term collaborations with public sector organisations like Wyre Council.

Supply of mains gas to the council's buildings.

Procurement Information

The procurement officer approached a number of energy brokers with regards to a fixed price for gas commencing from the end of the current contract. At the time owing to the volatility in the energy market, the brokers approached were not able to offer fixed prices and advised that these would not be available until nearer the end of the current contract. One broker did come forward with a fixed price energy tariff for the supply of electricity for a fixed term that guaranteed the unit rates and standing charges over a 3 year 5 month period (from 01/11/23 to 31/03/27) protecting the authority from future price rises. This offer was time constrained due to the volatility of the energy market at this current time and therefore only available for a limited period.
