Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

The notice does not list its own criteria, but mains gas supply generally requires an Ofgem gas supply licence, which most small businesses do not hold, so this is effectively an energy supplier contract rather than work a small trade business can deliver.

How to bid

This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
