This framework agreement aims to supply approximately 0.7 TWh of electricity to a diverse range of UK public sector bodies, including Central Government Departments, NHS bodies, and Local Authorities. The active procurement stage is complete, with the contract period commencing on 18th July 2017 and running until 18th July 2020, with an optional one-year extension. The contract value is estimated at £60 million, and the procurement method used was a selective restricted procedure. This tender presents robust business opportunities for suppliers in the energy sector, particularly those specialising in electricity supply and ancillary services. Companies that can effectively navigate the varying needs of public sector clients, especially those providing non half-hourly and potentially half-hourly electricity solutions, would be well-positioned to compete. This is an excellent chance for businesses looking to expand their footprint in the public procurement market, given the scale of demand across 697 customers managed through a sophisticated, aggregated approach. ## Notice Crown Commercial Service as the Contracting Authority has put in place a Pan Government Collaborative Framework Agreement for use by the UK public sector bodies identified at VI.3 of the Contract Notice (and any future successors to these organisations), which include Central Government Departments and their Arm's Length Bodies and Agencies, Non Departmental Public Bodies, NHS bodies and Local Authorities. The above Public Sector Bodies have a need for a framework agreement for the supply of approximately 0.7 TWh of electricity to meet requirements of 697 customers across 50,326 meters managed via an aggregated, flexible, risk managed approach. The requirement covers predominantly Non Half Hourly electricity however there may be a requirement for the supply of Half Hourly electricity following on from the recent P272 legislation. Additional information: The duration of the contract is 3 years plus an option to extend for a further year. This period is the time available for the placing of orders. Any contract value stated in this Notice is an estimate. We do guarantee the supplier any level of business through this framework agreement.
