UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Education Learning Trust is procuring the physical supply of mains and natural gas to all its authority sites in the United Kingdom. The requirement also covers associated invoicing and management of supply queries, so it suits gas suppliers able to provide both energy delivery and customer account support. The procurement is for goods, with the supply arranged as one lot. Zenergi Limited is managing the procurement for the Trust as its utility procurement advisor. The contract covers the Trust’s estate rather than a single delivery address, making nationwide operational coverage, reliable supply arrangements and coordinated billing relevant to potential bidders. The opportunity is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

The process reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an accelerated open competitive flexible procedure. Participation is tied to membership of the relevant dynamic market; requests for quotations are issued to suppliers admitted to the relevant lot and evaluated against the tender information. Enquiries had to be submitted by 23 September 2026 at 12:00, and offers by 24 September 2026 at 12:00. The intended award decision date was 24 September 2026 by 23:59. The contract period is 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. Its estimated gross value is £410,000. Evaluation allocates 70% to contract cost and 30% to technical criteria. Electronic submission in English is allowed via the stated e-sourcing route.

This opportunity suits established gas suppliers that can physically supply mains and natural gas across an education organisation’s sites and manage the supporting administration. Suppliers need membership of the relevant dynamic market before they can receive and respond to requests for quotations, so businesses should already hold that admission or be able to apply through the buyer’s specified route. The requirement calls for dependable supply operations, accurate invoicing and responsive handling of customer queries. Technical capability therefore matters alongside price, with technical criteria accounting for 30% of the evaluation. The lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it potentially accessible to specialist or regional suppliers with the necessary market membership, service systems and operational capacity.
