## Summary

Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council is seeking the supply and delivery of biomass wood pellets for locations across the borough. The pellets must meet the ENplus A1 certified quality standard. This is a goods contract for wood fuel, intended for use at the council’s sites. The procurement is organised as a single lot, covering the supply and delivery requirement across the borough rather than separate geographical or product packages. Suppliers should be able to provide certified A1 biomass pellets and arrange delivery to the council’s locations. The requirement is relevant to fuel suppliers and distributors with suitable pellet sourcing and delivery capability in or serving the Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon area.

The council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The procurement reached the tender stage; the buyer sought bids for the single-lot requirement. The deadline for questions was 23 October 2026 at 12:00, and the bid submission deadline was 30 October 2026 at 12:00. The contract was planned to start on 30 November 2026 and run for an initial 12 months, with two optional 12-month extensions, giving a possible end date of 30 November 2029. The estimated gross value is £75,600. The stated award basis is a 40:60 split under the most advantageous tender approach; the notice does not explain the criteria represented by those weightings.

This requirement may suit small and medium-sized businesses as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises, and is presented as one lot rather than divided into smaller packages. The key capability is reliable supply and delivery of biomass wood pellets that hold ENplus A1 certification. Suppliers will need to source product meeting that standard and fulfil deliveries to sites across the council borough. The contract’s initial term and potential extensions may suit suppliers able to support an ongoing delivery arrangement, rather than a one-off supply. Fuel merchants, biomass specialists and distributors with established logistics serving the area are therefore the most directly relevant bidders. The published evaluation split is 40:60, but the requirement does not identify the specific quality, price or other factors behind that weighting.
