Summary of the contracting process

The Compass Partnership of Schools is procuring the physical supply of electricity to all of its sites, together with associated invoicing and query management services. This is an electricity supply contract, covering delivery to the Authority’s sites in the United Kingdom. The Partnership is the buyer, with Zenergi Limited acting as its utility procurement adviser. The requirement is for a single package combining energy supply with the related billing and customer query services, rather than electricity alone.

The buyer invited offers through a competitive flexible procedure, using an open procurement method and a dynamic market. Only suppliers admitted to the relevant dynamic-market lot may receive and respond to the request for quotation. Electronic submission is allowed. The deadline for enquiries was 15 October 2026 at 12:00; offers were due by 16 October 2026 at 12:00. The contract period runs from 17 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. Its gross estimated value is £276,000. There is one lot, suitable for SMEs. Evaluation gives 70% to contract cost and 30% to technical criteria. The buyer set an award decision deadline of 16 October 2026.

This requirement suits electricity suppliers able to serve multiple school sites and manage the operational work that accompanies supply, including invoicing and handling customer queries. Suppliers must be admitted to the relevant lot of the dynamic market to take part in the quotation stage, so market admission is a prerequisite as well as the ability to meet the supply requirement. The single-lot structure combines electricity and associated services, making integrated delivery relevant. SMEs are considered suitable to compete. Price carries more weight than technical quality in the evaluation, but technical performance still accounts for a material share, so suppliers need to offer competitive costs alongside a credible service and support capability.
