Summary of the contracting process

Your Housing Group Limited procured utilities brokerage services for its operations across the North West of England. The requirement covers procurement of electricity and gas, creation of a dynamic marketplace for those utilities, invoice validation, query management, provision of an online portal and a dedicated client partner. The work is a specialist commercial and energy-management service rather than the physical supply of energy. It is classified as commodity brokerage services. The buyer is a sub-central public authority based in Warrington and the service delivery area is recorded as the UKD region, covering the North West. Suppliers serving housing organisations or other large property portfolios, with expertise in energy procurement and customer account management, would find the requirement relevant when considering comparable work.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. One lot was awarded to ZENERGI LIMITED, a small and medium-sized enterprise. The award was made on 5 August 2026. The active contract was signed on the same date and runs from 5 August 2026 to 4 August 2027. Its value is £170,906 excluding VAT, or £179,451 including VAT. Evaluation details are not recorded beyond the use of the direct procedure. The contract covers the full utilities brokerage requirement, including electricity and gas procurement, invoice validation, query management, portal provision and a dedicated client partner. The award concerns services delivered for Your Housing Group Limited across the North West of England.

This award demonstrates demand from a housing group for an end-to-end utilities brokerage service combining energy procurement with ongoing account and data management. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to source electricity and gas commercially, manage supplier relationships, validate invoices accurately and resolve billing or service queries. It would also need to provide a reliable customer portal and a dedicated client partner able to support the buyer throughout the service. Experience of serving housing providers, public bodies or dispersed property portfolios would help demonstrate an understanding of complex accounts and multiple sites. The requirement also indicates that buyers may value a managed service capable of creating or operating a dynamic marketplace, rather than a one-off energy purchasing exercise.
