UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Southend-on-Sea City Council has recently completed a procurement process for the supply and delivery of fuel to support its Parks and Open Spaces Services, specifically requiring White Diesel and Red Diesel. The contract was awarded to CERTAS ENERGY UK LIMITED, based in Birchwood, and is set to commence on 9th December 2025, lasting until 9th December 2026, with a potential extension of twelve months. This procurement fell under the limited competition method due to its below-threshold status and was classified under the goods category. The operational sites involved are located in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, United Kingdom, in the region UKH31.

This tender presents significant business growth potential for suppliers specialising in fuel supply and delivery, particularly those with capabilities in providing diesel fuel types. The awarded contract, valued at £70,000 GBP, offers considerable opportunity for businesses involved in logistics and fuel supply sectors to establish and expand their presence within public sector procurement, particularly in supporting local government operations. Large suppliers or those seeking to grow in the UK public services market, especially those with existing infrastructure for distribution in Essex, stand well-positioned to benefit from such engagements, as evidenced by CERTAS ENERGY UK LIMITED's successful bid.
