UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Saffron Housing Trust is seeking a supplier to provide mains gas for 18 gas meters serving its housing operations. The requirement is for the supply of gas rather than installation, maintenance or construction work, and is classified as mains gas. The anticipated annual volume is 3.2 GWh. The arrangement includes consolidated billing and the ability to provide billing data in an Excel file. Suppliers may offer green and brown pricing. The supply is intended to support the Trust’s gas consumption across its properties in England. This opportunity will suit energy companies and licensed gas suppliers able to manage multiple meters, provide reliable wholesale and retail supply arrangements, and meet the buyer’s billing and account-management requirements.

The procurement has reached tender: Saffron Housing Trust invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The deadline for submissions was 24 September 2026 at 12:00 noon. Requests for the tender document and enquiries were to be sent before that deadline. Electronic submission was not allowed. The contract covers 12 months, from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2028, for an estimated gross value of £136,557 including applicable taxes. There is one requirement covering all 18 gas meters. The contract will be awarded primarily on price, with billing requirements, customer service, account management and added-value services also considered. Suppliers must be registered with Ofgem and hold the relevant gas supply licence.

This opportunity is suited to established gas suppliers with the regulatory standing and operational capacity to supply 18 meters and manage an estimated 3.2 GWh annual volume. Ofgem registration and the relevant supply licence are essential, so the strongest candidates will already operate within the UK gas market and have the systems needed for compliant supply and settlement. Suppliers should be able to provide consolidated billing, produce billing information in Excel format, and support effective account management and customer service. The evaluation gives price the greatest importance, making competitive procurement and pricing capability central. Businesses able to offer both green and brown pricing options may also be well placed, alongside providers that can demonstrate useful added-value services.
