Tender description

North East Lincolsnhire Council (The Authority) seeks to establish a regional electricity and gas basket framework agreement to enable the Authority and named contracting bodies to purchase half hourly (HH), non-half hourly (NHH) and unmetered (UMS) electricity and gas. ENGIE Services Ltd is seeking tenderers who can supply electricity and gas products. Only suppliers who can supply electricity and gas products will be considered for this opportunity. The tender is divided into lots and tenderers can bid for one or both lots, The ideal scenario would be to award both lots to one supplier. However, the Authority recognises that not all suppliers can supply both commodities. ENGIE Services Ltd on behalf of North East Lincolnshire Council and named contracting bodies is seeking suppliers of electricity, half hourly (HH), non-half hourly (NHH) and unmetered (UMS) electricity supply ‘the basket’. The quantity of electricity required under this framework is dependent on the number of contracting bodies utilising the framework. No commitment of volumes is offered and there are no guarantees that any of the contracting bodies named (listed at the end of the notice) will access this framework. Purchasing of the electricity product is fully flexible. As a minimum, suppliers will permit trade in months,quarters, season and future products on both live and settlement prices. Flattened tradable volumes are required when purchasing seasonal purchasing periods. The value of the Council's basket is estimated at GBP 10 026 740.00 over the 4 years of the framework. For the purpose of the tender we have calculated this figure x 4 assuming the possibility of three other contracting bodies joining the basket of a similar portfolio. This is a two-stage process. Tenderers will submit initial tenders by the deadline stated in this notice. At the conclusion of the initial evaluation stage, all tenderers having met the minimum scoring criteria will be invited to participate in the negotiation stage. The process is fully outlined in section eTender Evaluation Plan of the invitation to tender documentation.
