## Summary

North Lanarkshire Council is currently in the planning stage for a potential future procurement procedure titled "Void Energy Management Scheme." This project falls under the "Housing and community amenities" and "General public services" categories and is situated in the UKM84 region, specifically in Motherwell. Interested parties are invited to engage with the pre-procurement process and complete a Market Engagement Questionnaire by 17 October 2024. Key aspects of the tender include ensuring an uninterrupted supply of gas and electricity during void tenancy periods, with a notice for future communication scheduled for 25 November 2024.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in energy management services, particularly in providing short-term gas and electricity supplies, managing legacy debt and meter issues, and ensuring smooth supplier switching. Companies with expertise in void property management, smart meter installation, and offering competitive tariff rates will find this contract especially lucrative. Engaging with this tender can position businesses to support public service objectives, contribute to operational efficiencies, and broaden their market presence within regional and local authority projects.

## Notice

As part of the preparatory work for a potential future procurement procedure, North Lanarkshire Council (the "Council") is looking to engage with the market for a future Void Energy Management Scheme contract.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Within any future potential future Void Energy Management Scheme contract., services required would involve the provision of gas and / or electricity to the Council on a short-term basis following the departure of a tenant from the Council's housing stock to enable repairs etc.in preparation for new tenants and provide any new tenant with gas and / or electricity as their entry supplier. Historically, an average of 2,804 properties per year within the pilot, with an additional benefit of the free provision of 4 pay points. The energy used when a house is void should be supplied to the Council on a standard tariff plan. This is because the Council are the customer for only a short period and therefore could incur financial penalties in a fixed tariff plan. Therefore for best value, any future contract should be of sufficient length to ensure continuity whilst permitting the opportunity for best value in terms of tariff prices.
