ESPO are establishing a framework for the supply of liquid fuels, notably automotive fuels and heating oil. Recognising the geographical nature of this market, ESPO will structure the framework into multiple Lots using NUTS (Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics) codes to define regional groupings across the United Kingdom. A total of 55 Lots will be established based on these geographic regions. Suppliers may submit bids for one, several or all Lots. Customers will typically take delivery into their own bulk tanks however; the framework also includes a provision to offer Fuel Bunkering to support any customer seeking to purchase bulk fuel for their fuel card arrangements. To ensure transparency and alignment with market conditions, the pricing of liquid fuels supplied under this framework will be referenced against the relevant Platts Oil Price Index (Platts), typically on a weekly lagged basis. HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil), Biodiesel and similar renewable and alternative fuels are included within the scope of this Framework to support emerging customer needs across the public sector. Please refer to the tender documents for further details (including further details on each of the lots/sub-lots) - please ensure that you access the ITT Event / Activity (Activity summary screen) for these once an Expression of interest ('register interest’) has been completed (see also the below note in the case of Expressions of interest having already been completed). The framework agreement has the option to extend for up to a further 24 months. ESPO may choose to use the extension periods where; • The framework continues to provide customers competitive fuel pricing • It continues to meet customer needs for liquid fuels ESPO reserves the right to implement the extension period in part, full, or in increments (such as 2x 12-month periods). The total estimated framework value stated includes the option to extend as noted above.
