Summary of the contracting process

The Compass Partnership of Schools established a dynamic market for the physical supply of electricity and mains gas to all its sites across the United Kingdom. The requirement also covers associated invoicing and query management. Electricity and gas are divided into separate lots, allowing the two supply areas to be considered independently. The buyer is The Compass Partnership of Schools; Zenergi Limited acted as its utility procurement adviser. This is an energy-supply arrangement rather than a contract for installing or maintaining energy infrastructure. Suppliers need to be able to provide the relevant commodity across the Authority’s sites and handle the related billing and customer queries.

The dynamic market has been established and both lots have active awards. Nine suppliers were appointed to the electricity lot: British Gas Trading Limited, Brook Green Supply Limited, Drax Energy Solutions Limited, Marble Power Limited, SSE Energy Supply Limited, GETVOLTER LTD, YÜ ENERGY RETAIL LIMITED, Conrad Energy Group Limited and Ecotricity Limited. Five were appointed to the gas lot: British Gas Trading Limited, Brook Green Supply Limited, Crown Gas and Power Limited, SSE Energy Supply Limited and YÜ ENERGY RETAIL LIMITED. The arrangement is an open procurement method operated as a dynamic market, under the Procurement Act 2023. It allows competitive selection among admitted suppliers, and suppliers may apply to join during the market’s duration. The market’s start date is 5 October 2026. No individual award values, award dates, contract end dates or evaluation criteria are recorded here.

This award shows continuing demand from a schools partnership for both electricity and gas supply across multiple sites, with invoicing and query management included in the service. The appointed group includes large energy suppliers as well as smaller businesses, indicating that scale alone was not the only route to appointment. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate reliable physical supply for the relevant commodity and the operational capacity to manage multi-site billing and customer enquiries. Suppliers focused on electricity can compete for that requirement separately from gas specialists; businesses able to cover both can address either area. The dynamic-market model provides for new suppliers to seek admission during its duration, with subsequent purchasing through competitive selections among admitted suppliers.
