Compliant procurement frameworks

Compliant solutions to purchase utilities and save money

Public sector organisations can use a range of legally compliant frameworks to purchase electricity, natural gas and other utilities. Using these frameworks helps your organisation to manage and reduce risk when spending public money.

The government recommends that public sector organisations adopt aggregated, flexible and risk-managed energy procurement. We offer a range of compliant frameworks, including gas, electricity and water to save your organisation time, achieve best practice and demonstrate value-for-money through utilities procurement.

Protecting you against price shocks

A flexible contract gives you complete visibility over the various supplier and industry costs, as well as the raw cost of your gas and electricity. And because you’re purchasing directly from the wholesale market, you can be sure that you’re getting the best price available.

Flexible procurement helps reduce premiums across both commodity and non-commodity costs. Although fixed-price contracts give you budget certainty, the contract price has a risk premium built in to protect suppliers from unexpected market movements.

Flexible purchasing means that you can buy energy over a longer period and have more opportunity to benefit from bearish markets. You don’t need to lock high prices in for a lengthy period. Instead, you can purchase energy in smaller tranches and spread the risk throughout the year.
