## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Kendal College involves the supply of mains electricity to several half-hourly meters, scheduled to commence on 1st April 2026 and running for a 12-month duration. Located in Kendal, UKD12 region of the United Kingdom, Kendal College acts as the buying organisation. The process is already in the award stage, having completed the tender phase, which was established under competitive flexible procedures due to the urgent nature stated to avoid exposure to volatile energy market prices. A contract valued at £278,000 GBP was signed on 30th March 2026, and electricity deliveries are set to begin from 1st April 2026, targeting a total estimated annual volume of 0.8 GWH.

This tender offers small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in energy supply the opportunity for business growth by engaging with the public sector. Prospective suppliers are required to hold a valid OFGEM supplier licence, and the selection criteria highlight price competitiveness, customer service, and renewable energy options. The process encourages suppliers to provide innovative solutions like Excel billing files to facilitate ongoing invoice validation. As the procurement method is selective, only suppliers meeting stringent economic and technical criteria will qualify, presenting a unique opportunity for experienced energy managers and large-scale providers, like SmartestEnergy Limited, to offer competitive and quality service aligned with Kendal College's requirements.
