About this contract

The Invitation to tender (ITT) is issued to establish a gas portfolio services framework for a central purchasing body covering the UK. The lead contracting authority for this tender is Northumberland Tyne & Wear NHS Foundation Trust. The tender process and resulting framework agreement is managed by Inenco, acting as the agent for the central purchasing body. The framework is available for use by all National Health Service (NHS) organisations across England, Scotland and Wales. The client is seeking bids from suppliers to participate in a single lot gas portfolio services framework. The primary requirement for this framework is a gas procurement solution, where clients are aggregated into a trade shape to enable consolidated trading of the commodity via the wholesale market. Depending on buying options the trading of an annual requirement will cease ahead of the first delivery day and therefore prices shall be translated into fully delivered costs on a site by site basis. However, there is a buying option for trading within each annual delivery period. Accordingly, the aggregated portfolios should allow a number of trading strategies. The framework agreement is to be four years in duration from the commencement date, anticipated to be during December 2016. The framework is to cover call-off contracts made within England, Scotland and Wales, but excludes Northern Ireland. The framework is available for use by all NHS organisations including, but not limited to, the following defined groups: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/nhs-foundation-trust-directory/nhs-foundation-trust-directory http://www.nhs.uk/ServiceDirectories/Pages/NHSTrustListing.aspx http://our.property.nhs.uk/ http://www.nhs.uk/ServiceDirectories/Pages/NHSTrustListing.aspx http://our.property.nhs.uk/ http://www.scot.nhs.uk/organisations/ http://www.nhsdirect.wales.nhs.uk/localservices/localhealthboards/ http://www.nhs.uk/pages/home.aspx Where an entity listed in the above defined groups is succeeded by another entity, the successor entity shall be deemed to be included in the defined groups list. The framework is also available to all current and future members of the central purchasing body. Please see the tender documents for further details of the framework requirements. Additional information: Submissions are to be submitted through the Cirrus Purchasing eTender system only.
