Publisher note: Submissions will be managed through the MyTenders etendering system; all documentation is available through www.mytenders.org. For further information on how to access the tender documentation and a direct link or for any other query, please contact [email protected]. Grand Union Housing Group (the "Buyer")is seeking to put in place an OJEU compliant Framework Agreement for the procurement of electricity and natural gas to provide themselves and other eligible contracting authorities (“Framework Buyers”) with a compliant route to market, giving due consideration to the unique market conditions and pricing mechanisms. The Framework has been developed to deliver lower energy prices for Framework Buyers, by enabling them to strategically time the placement of their energy contracts, and in order to capitalise on opportunities presented by price volatility as well as economies due to increased competition, by the inclusion of a wide range of Framework Suppliers in each Lot. The Buyer has appointed Trident Utilities Ltd (the “Framework Administrator”) to advertise the Framework Contract Notice; administrate the Framework Agreement on behalf of the Buyer and assist in the formulation of the ITT; respond to clarification requests from potential Framework Suppliers; the evaluation of tender responses and Framework Supplier selection. The Framework Administrator will also register all Framework Buyers, wishing to use the Framework; maintain detailed records of the Call-Off Contracts awarded; monitor ongoing Supplier Performance and Customer Satisfaction Levels and provide assistance as required to Framework Buyers with the Mini-Competition award process for the purpose of Calling Off Contracts under the Framework Agreement. The proposed Framework Agreement already has several committed future participants who are contracting authorities in the Social Housing and Education sectors, with other contracting authorities having expressed an interest in potentially using the Framework in the future. The contracting authorities who are eligible to use the Framework Agreement fit into the following categories and can be identified by following the relevant links provided in the ITT document: Housing Associations / Registered Providers of social housing Local and Regional authorities NHS Bodies including Acute Trusts, Ambulance Trusts, Primary Care trusts, Care Trusts, NHS Hospital. Trusts, Strategic Health Authorities, Mental Health Trusts, Special Health Authorities Schools, academies, colleges, universities and other educational bodies British Monarchy The Buyer accepts no responsibility for inaccuracies in the estimated value of business and award to the Framework will represent no guarantee of future business or right to exclusivity.
