Summary of the contracting process

The Compass Partnership of Schools has established a dynamic market for the physical supply of electricity and mains gas to all its sites across the United Kingdom. The requirement includes associated invoicing and query management for both utilities. Electricity and gas are separate lots, so the market covers suppliers able to serve either or both requirements. The buyer is The Compass Partnership of Schools; Zenergi Limited acted as its utility procurement adviser. This is an energy supply opportunity with supporting account and customer-service functions, rather than a works contract or a standalone consultancy requirement.

The dynamic market has been established and suppliers have been selected for both lots. The electricity lot includes British Gas Trading, Brook Green Supply, Drax Energy Solutions, Marble Power, SSE Energy Supply, GETVOLTER, YÜ Energy Retail, Conrad Energy Group, Ecotricity and Corona Energy Retail. The gas lot includes British Gas Trading, Brook Green Supply, Crown Gas and Power, SSE Energy Supply and YÜ Energy Retail. The market period starts on 5 October 2026. It uses an open procurement method and operates as a dynamic market, with competitive selections among admitted suppliers. Electronic submission is allowed. No individual awarded values or contract durations are stated in the process data.

For suppliers that were not selected, this outcome shows that the school partnership procures electricity and gas together through a dynamic market, with utility supply supported by invoicing and query management. Credible competitors need to be able to provide physical energy supply to the buyer’s sites and manage the associated billing and customer queries. The selected supplier group includes both large companies and SMEs, showing that smaller suppliers can participate alongside established energy businesses. The electricity and gas requirements are separate lots, and suppliers were selected for one or both. Competing for a similar requirement would therefore call for relevant utility supply capability and the operational capacity to serve public-sector sites and handle ongoing account support.
