## Summary

The Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust has awarded a £1.5 billion framework contract for power, gas, and water supply services. The contract, initiated through a tender, is expected to benefit multiple suppliers across different lots covering various energy sources. The framework allows for call-off contracts within England, Scotland, and Wales but excludes Northern Ireland.
