UK13 - Dynamic Market Intention Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sandwell College established a dynamic market for the physical supply of mains gas to all its sites, with associated invoicing and query-management services. The college is the buyer, with Zenergi Limited acting as its utility procurement adviser. The requirement covers gas supply across the authority’s sites in the United Kingdom. The arrangement provides for competitive selection processes among suppliers admitted to the market, rather than a single supply contract covering all purchases. This is a goods procurement centred on commercial gas supply, alongside the account administration needed to bill the college and handle supply-related queries.

The dynamic market has been established and ten suppliers were admitted: British Gas Trading Limited, Brook Green Supply Limited, Corona Energy Retail 1 Limited, Crown Gas and Power Limited, Ecotricity Limited, Npower Commercial Gas Limited, SEFE Energy Limited, Shell Energy UK Limited, SSE Energy Supply Limited and YÜ Energy Retail Limited. The route is an open dynamic market under the Procurement Act 2023, with one lot and electronic submissions allowed. The market period starts on 2 October 2026; no end date is stated. The procurement is for supply arrangements made through later competitive selections, and no overall contract value or individual award values are published. Suppliers pay no win fee. The award records the admitted suppliers, rather than a single contract award.

This outcome shows demand for a supplier able to deliver physical gas to a public college’s sites and support accurate invoicing and responsive query management. The buyer has admitted established, large-scale energy suppliers, including both gas-focused businesses and wider energy companies, indicating that credible capacity to serve multiple sites and manage business customers is central to competing. Suppliers should be able to participate in a dynamic market and respond to competitive selections, with electronic submission available. The market mechanism is designed to admit suppliers during its duration, so capability to meet the college’s operational supply and account-management requirements is more relevant than a one-off award. This is evidence of the buyer’s route for procuring gas, not an invitation to supply under the completed establishment process.
