## Summary

The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust has concluded a procurement process for electricity supply, classified under the goods category, with a direct procurement method. This was conducted below the threshold, meaning no open competition was needed. The procurement is focused on electricity supply in Chester, United Kingdom, under legal guidelines specified by the UKPGA 2023/54. The contract was awarded on 13th May 2026, and the service period extends from 14th May 2026 to 15th May 2026. The contract is valued at £11,631.19, with a gross amount of £13,957.43.

This contract presents a business growth opportunity specifically for electricity suppliers. While this particular procurement was not open to competition, understanding the requirements and specifications of such direct awards can prepare other suppliers for similar future opportunities. Businesses in the energy sector, especially those capable of forming partnerships or sub-contracting with recognised suppliers like EDF Energy Customers Limited, are well-suited to engage with such procurements. The procurement landscape within NHS trusts could provide subsequent opportunities for businesses to enter this market segment strategically. Potential participants should ensure compliance with regulatory standards and develop competitive advantages to attract possible future awards.
