Summary of the contracting process

Bohunt Education Trust procured flexible mains gas supply and associated utility management services for its education estate across the United Kingdom. The requirement is classified as goods and covers the supply of gas rather than construction, installation or general energy consultancy. Zenergi Limited acted as the procuring entity and utility procurement adviser for the Trust. The procurement was for one requirement, with the supply and related management activity treated together. Businesses active in commercial gas supply, energy procurement and account management would find the subject matter relevant, particularly those able to support a public-sector education customer with multiple sites and flexible purchasing arrangements. The awarded supplier was SEFE Energy Limited, a large energy company.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to SEFE Energy Limited on 30 July 2026. The award value was £1,367,000 including the recorded net amount of £1,500,000 gross, with the source also giving a gross estimated value of £1,500,000 for the tender and lot. The contract period is 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029. It used an accelerated open competitive flexible procedure, with participation linked to membership of the relevant dynamic market. Three bids reached the final stage. Evaluation weighted price at 70% and technical quality at 30%. The tender response deadline was 27 July 2026 at 13:00, with enquiries closing on 26 July 2026 at 12:00.

This award demonstrates established demand from Bohunt Education Trust for flexible gas supply combined with ongoing management support, delivered through a structured public-sector competition. A credible future competitor would need the capability to source and supply mains gas at education-estate scale, manage flexible purchasing arrangements and provide reliable account and contract administration. Technical quality formed a material part of the evaluation alongside price, so suppliers would need to evidence more than competitive rates: they should be able to explain their operational approach, service controls, reporting and responsiveness. Membership of the relevant dynamic market was required for this procurement route, making familiarity with dynamic-market admission and quotation processes important. The three-bid competition also indicates that suppliers must be prepared for focused, competitive tenders rather than relying solely on framework presence.
