Summary of the contracting process

TRANSPORT UK EAST ANGLIA LIMITED has completed a procurement process for the supply of mains metered electricity and natural gas to sites throughout East Anglia. This direct award contract, covering a period from 1st April 2025 to 30th September 2025, was necessitated by the impending public ownership of the company by October 2025 and the expiry of existing contracts. The categories involved are 100kW and sub-100kW electricity, with estimated consumption for six months at 6,250,000 kWh and 1,600,000 kWh respectively, alongside natural gas at an estimated 3,600,000 kWh. The procurement method was a direct award to the current supplier, SSE Energy Supply Limited, to ensure continuity and best value during the transition period. Key dates include the contract's end date on 30th September 2025, and the procurement's initiation date of 21st March 2025.

This tender creates substantial opportunities for businesses involved in the energy sector, particularly those specialising in the supply and distribution of electricity and natural gas. Companies with large-scale operations and capabilities to manage extensive energy supply contracts are well-suited to compete, particularly in regions such as East Anglia and London. With the direct award ensuring a smooth transition and continuity of supply, businesses aiming to secure future public sector contracts should consider positioning themselves for similar opportunities under upcoming CCS Frameworks. This contract highlights the importance of maintaining robust supply chains and readiness for public sector procurement requirements.

Notice Title

The Supply of Mains Metered Electricity and Natural Gas to Sites Throughout the East Anglia Area

Notice Description

The Supply of Mains Metered Electricity and Natural Gas to sites throughout the East Anglia area. 100kW Electricity - estimated consumption for a 6-month period of circa 6,250,000 kWh.

Procurement Information

Additional or repeat goods, services or works - further goods, services or works following a competitive procedure. It is anticipated that Transport UK East Anglia Limited will be taken into public ownership in October 2025. Transport UK East Anglia's current contractual arrangements for supplies of Electricity and Natural Gas Supply are with SSE and will expire on 31st March 2025. It is anticipated that thereafter supplies of Electricity and Natural Gas Supply will be procured under the CCS Frameworks. There is therefore a requirement to put in place a short term contract for the period 01/04/25 to 30/09/25. For the past 3 months the Department for Transport (DfT) have put a hold on all procurement activities for non-Key Contracts. Given relatively short supply period. together with the diminished timescale to put in place new procurement arrangements it is considered that a Direct award of a 6 month period contract is made to the current supplier SSE. The Direct Award pricing agreed with the incumbent supplier has been benchmarked against prevailing market pricing to ensure best value is obtained.
