Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, titled "S1102 (2025) Supply of Electricity to NIE Network Premises," was managed by Northern Ireland Electricity Networks Limited (NIE Networks), a key player in the electricity industry in the UK. This tender falls under the "Electricity" industry category and targets suppliers within Northern Ireland. The procurement followed a selective method and involved a negotiated procedure with a prior call for competition. Although the initial tender stage began in December 2024, the contract was ultimately awarded in July 2025 to Power NI for a total value of GBP 5,333,333.
