## Summary

Southern Electric Power Distribution plc is seeking website development and support services for the SSE Group. The work covers support, maintenance, enhancement, optimisation and development, including web server software development. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. This is a digital services requirement for suppliers able to maintain and improve a website while also delivering ongoing development work. The buyer is a private utility, and the arrangement is intended to serve SSE Group companies.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The procurement is a single-lot fixed-price services framework for one supplier, with no further competition when work is called off. The buyer set 18 November 2026 at 17:00 for enquiries and 21 November 2026 at 17:00 for submissions. The contract is scheduled to run from 30 March 2027 to 28 March 2031, with an extension option that could take it to 26 March 2032 to cover a tender process. The estimated value is £2.5 million excluding VAT (£3 million including VAT). Offers are assessed on quality and price, with responses scored for experience and capability. An award decision was expected by 26 March 2027.

This opportunity suits a web development supplier able to provide continuing support and maintenance alongside enhancements, optimisation and new development. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate relevant experience and capability in their tender responses, as these are the stated assessment considerations alongside price. The requirement combines operational website support with technical development, so it is suited to a provider able to sustain service delivery over a multi-year arrangement and respond to changing needs across SSE Group companies. The fixed-price framework is for a single supplier, making it most relevant to a business with the capacity to take responsibility for the service rather than one seeking a share of a multi-supplier framework.
