This active procurement falls under the energy and related services industry category, with the tender period concluding at 12:00 BST on 15th June 2017. The contract is expected to commence on 21st June 2017 and remain active until 30th April 2018. Interested parties must register on the council's e-tendering system, In-tend, to submit their quotes. The main delivery location for the services is Birmingham, within the West Midlands region. This tender presents a significant business opportunity, particularly for firms specialising in financial consultancy, energy management services, and related advisory services. Companies with experience in developing business cases and financial modelling for energy companies would be especially well-suited to compete. The establishment of the Birmingham Energy Company aims to provide retail gas and electricity to a variety of markets, including the public sector and local businesses, fostering potential partnerships and long-term contracts for successful bidders. ## Notice Birmingham City Council (BCC) is seeking quotations from organisations for the provision of financial advisory services to support the development of the Full Business Case (FBC) for the establishment of a fully licensed Birmingham Energy Company. This follows the completion of an Outline Business Case (OBC) and options appraisal in 2016 that confirmed the most appropriate route for the Birmingham Energy Company to be a fully licensed supply. The FBC for the fully licensed Birmingham Energy Company is due to be presented to Cabinet in September 2017 to seek approval for the setup of the company by April 2018. The main purpose of the energy company will be to supply energy, (retail gas and electricity), and associated services to the local economy - encompassing public estate, domestic, commercial and industrial markets. The company will be run on a commercial basis and ultimately will be expected to provide an ongoing financial return to BCC. BCC will be using its e-tendering system (in-tend) for the administration of this market sounding process and interested parties must register with the system to be able to express an interest.
