COMMON QUESTIONS

About this award

Who are the listed suppliers?

Nine verified suppliers are listed: CORNERSTONE (EAST ANGLIA) LTD, EDF ENERGY CUSTOMERS LIMITED, EFFICIENT ENERGY SERVICES LTD, LIVE MANAGE FACILITATE LIMITED, T.S.G. BUILDING SERVICES PLC, NET ZERO GURUS LTD, QWALA LIMITED, REFYT LTD and SYNERGIZE LTD.

What is the value of the framework?

The aggregate framework value is not established in the supplied notice. Four contract records each show £24m gross, but the publication does not explain whether these are separate or shared amounts.

Is this a contract modification?

No. The published rationale says the contract change notice was used as an addendum to attach redacted contract documents and does not describe a modification.

ProcuraAxis award analysis supplements, but does not replace, the official award notice, contract data or procurement documents. “Awarded” does not by itself prove that a contract has been signed.
