UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Scotia Gas Networks Limited, working with Wales & West Utilities, commissioned an education and support project for young adults aged 16 to 25 across the two gas network areas. Safe & Warm Futures provides targeted financial and energy education to help participants understand energy use, manage household finances, and engage safely and confidently with the energy system. The work focuses on prevention, early intervention and support at key transition points, particularly for young adults and people whose circumstances increase their vulnerability. It is a service contract centred on education and training, intended to support people in vulnerable situations through a collaborative project funded by the Vulnerability and Carbon Monoxide Allowance.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Money Ready. The award was made on 10 September 2026, following a direct award below the applicable threshold without competition. The award value is £527,000 excluding VAT (£632,400 including VAT). The contract period runs from 5 October 2026 to 4 October 2027. The requirement was procured as a single lot, and the lot was marked as suitable for voluntary, community and social enterprises. The published information does not set out separate scored evaluation criteria; the award record identifies Money Ready as the selected supplier. A contract signature was scheduled for 5 October 2026.

For organisations considering similar work for Scotia Gas Networks and Wales & West Utilities, this award signals demand for targeted financial and energy education for young adults, delivered across both network areas and focused on people facing vulnerability. A credible provider would need to design and deliver accessible learning that helps 16-to-25-year-olds understand energy use and household finances, engage safely with the energy system, and benefit from early intervention at significant life transitions. Experience supporting vulnerable people and an ability to work collaboratively across utility network areas would be directly relevant. The single-lot award indicates a project delivered as one joined-up service rather than separate geographic packages. The procurement was made directly without competition, so the award does not establish a competitive scoring model; suppliers should be able to demonstrate a strong fit with the project’s preventative education and support aims.
