Published requirement descriptionThe CPC are looking to put a framework in place that offers members a compliant route to market for their Utility requirements. We are looking to work with a single utilities expert to provide members with sound knowledge and advice on the options available to them as well as keeping them updated with the ever-volatile energy market conditions and ensuring they secure their contract in the best way at the right time to demonstrate VFM. The energy consultant must be able to provide a fully compliant route to market for end users looking to procure their gas and electricity.

- Price carries 20 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Utilities Supplies and Services Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
