UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Quantum Multi Academy Trust is procuring half-hourly electricity supplies and associated electricity management services. The requirement covers the supply of electricity rather than wider energy works or infrastructure, and is intended for the trust’s sites across the United Kingdom. Quantum Multi Academy Trust is the buying organisation, with Zenergi Limited acting as its utility procurement adviser and procuring entity. The procurement is a single electricity requirement, covering the supplies and related management activity together. Businesses specialising in electricity supply, half-hourly metering arrangements, energy purchasing and associated account or portfolio management should find the subject matter relevant. The opportunity is focused on commercial electricity provision and management services for an education-sector buyer, rather than construction, installation or general facilities management.

The process has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open competitive flexible procedure. The procedure is accelerated because tenderers were pre-selected as utilities or non-central-government suppliers. Membership of the relevant dynamic market is required, and requests for quotations are issued to suppliers admitted to the relevant lot. Enquiries were due by 25 August 2026 at 12:00, and offers by 26 August 2026 at 12:00; the award decision was due by 26 August 2026 at 23:59. The contract period is 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. The estimated gross value is £520,000, including VAT. Price carries 70% of the evaluation and technical quality 30%. Electronic submission in English is allowed, and the requirement is suitable for SMEs.

This opportunity suits electricity suppliers and energy procurement specialists able to provide half-hourly electricity together with reliable ongoing management services. A supplier must be admitted to the relevant dynamic market, so businesses should be prepared to demonstrate and maintain the required market participation status before competing. The evaluation gives price greater importance than technical quality, while still reserving 30% for the technical response; bidders therefore need both competitive electricity pricing and a credible service model. Relevant capability may include half-hourly supply operations, consumption data and meter management, billing oversight, customer reporting, forecasting or purchasing support, and account management for multiple education sites. The stated SME suitability may make the requirement accessible to smaller specialists with the necessary operational capacity and dynamic-market membership.
