## Summary

Northern Gas Networks Limited is currently conducting a selective tender for the purchase of compressed natural gas (CNG) cylinders, classed under industrial gases. This procurement process is in the planning stage, with key details indicating that the contract is to supply approximately 45-50 cylinders weighing less than 25kgs, essential for their operational depots. The tender period is open until 14th June 2021, and the contract is expected to have an initial term of three years, with an option for two one-year extensions, providing a long-term business opportunity for selected suppliers.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in gas supply, cylinder manufacturing, or logistics. Companies capable of meeting specific requirements, such as the capability to refill or replace cylinders on a regular basis and provide gas monitoring regulators, would be well-suited to compete. As the procurement involves ongoing service to multiple operational depots, businesses with a strong logistical infrastructure and experience in servicing industrial gas needs will likely find this contract advantageous for growth.

## Notice

Northern Gas Networks are seeking to establish a contract with a single supplier to provide circa 45-50 compressed natural gas (CNG) cylinders weighing less than 25kgs (Single man lift) to its operational depots. The CNG cylinders must meet the following mandatory criteria:- * Must be able to pick up and either refill or provide replacement cylinders as and when NGN consume the gas inside them * Must be able to provide regulators to enable NGN to monitor both gas flow (pressure being delivered from cylinders) and to show how much gas is remining in the cylinder * Must be able to service all NGN operational depots as an ongoing requirement * It would also be preferable, if the supplier had the facility to provide larger quantities of cylinders should NGN have a gas incident and want to use the technique in place of fan heaters and hot plates, but this is not essential. To express your interest please contact Ashley Haddock - Procurement Manager - ahaddock@northerngas.co.uk
