Summary of the contracting process

King Edmund School is procuring the physical supply of electricity to all its sites, together with associated invoicing and query-management services. This is an electricity supply and utility administration requirement, classified as goods. The buyer is King Edmund School, with Zenergi Limited acting as the utility procurement adviser and procuring entity. Delivery is across the Authority’s sites in the United Kingdom. The requirement covers electricity supplies rather than construction, equipment installation or general facilities management. Suppliers should therefore be able to provide the energy itself and support the associated billing and customer-query processes for a public-sector school estate.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a competitive flexible procedure using an open procurement method, with requests for quotations issued to suppliers admitted to the relevant dynamic-market lot. Enquiries had to be submitted by 21 September 2026 at 12:00 BST, and offers by 22 September 2026 at 12:00 BST. The intended award decision date was 22 September 2026. The single lot is valued at £255,000 gross. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. Evaluation is based on contract cost at 70% and technical quality at 30%. Electronic submission is allowed, in English, through the stated e-sourcing route.

This opportunity suits electricity suppliers able to serve a school authority’s sites throughout the United Kingdom and manage the operational administration that comes with supply. Relevant capability includes arranging and maintaining physical electricity supply, producing accurate invoices and handling billing queries promptly. Suppliers must be admitted to the relevant lot of the dynamic market, since membership is a requirement for participation and quotations are issued to admitted suppliers. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so it may suit an established specialist supplier as well as a larger utility business. A strong technical submission will matter alongside competitive pricing, with technical quality accounting for 30% of the evaluation.
