Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Authority is buying electricity to supply its estate. This is an energy supply requirement covering the Authority’s sites across Dorset and Wiltshire, rather than electricity infrastructure or installation work. The requirement is for a single lot covering the estate as a whole. Electricity is a recurring operational input for the fire and rescue service, so the relevant market is suppliers able to provide and manage electricity supply for a public-sector estate across this area.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to EDF Energy Customers Limited. The Authority used a direct award through the Government Commercial Agency’s Supply of Energy 2 framework, Lot 1, which was described as a one-supplier lot; one bid was recorded. The stated evaluation basis was price. The contract was signed on 15 September 2026, with a value of £2,103,206.64. It covers electricity supply across the Authority’s estate from 2029 to 2033. The tender listed one lot, and that lot is marked cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active.

For suppliers competing for a future requirement from this Authority, the relevant capability is dependable electricity supply across a multi-site fire and rescue estate in Dorset and Wiltshire. The award indicates that the Authority has used a central government energy framework and a direct award route where the framework lot has a single supplier, with price as the stated evaluation basis. A credible competitor would need to qualify for the relevant framework route and offer pricing competitive enough to satisfy a price-led assessment, while supporting supply across the estate for a multi-year contract. This is a substantial public-sector energy supply requirement; established suppliers with the capacity to serve multiple operational sites are the closest fit.}
