FW Supply & Deliver – LV & MV Cables – Multi Site 1232
Authority: Scottish Hydro Electric Power Distribution plc·Consortium: 2 public authorities
What is being bought6 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionScottish and Southern Electricity Networks, comprising Scottish Hydro Electric Power Distribution plc and Southern Electric Power Distribution plc, intends to establish a multi-supplier Framework Agreement for the supply and delivery of low voltage (LV) and medium voltage (MV) cable products. The Framework Agreement may also be called off by SSEN Transmission, SSE Renewables, SSE utility Solution Ltd, TESGL Ltd and SSE Heat Networks Ltd where technically appropriate.
The scope will include LV concentric cables, LV waveform cables, LV auxiliary “fast runner” cables, and 11kV and 33kV cable products. By combining these requirements into a single procurement exercise, SSEN aims to improve security of supply, maximise competition, support supplier participation, provide greater demand visibility, and deliver value for customers. The arrangement is also intended to support SSEN Distribution’s ED3 and ED4 investment programme and future network requirements.
The proposed scope of the new framework is intended to be, but not limited to:
- LV Concentric Cables
- LV Waveform Cables
- Selected LV Auxiliary ("fast runner") Cables
- 11kV Cables
- 33kV Cables
The current proposed lotting strategy is:
Lot Description
Lot 1 LV Concentric & Auxiliary Cables North
Lot 2 LV Concentric & Auxiliary Cables South
Lot 3 LV Waveform Cables North
Lot 4 LV Waveform Cables South
Lot 5 MV Cables North
Lot 6 MV Cables South
SSEN intends to establish a multi-supplier framework and currently anticipates appointing up to the three highest ranked suppliers per lot, subject to receipt of sufficient compliant, suitable and competitive tenders. Suppliers will be ranked following evaluation; however, SSE would retain flexibility to allocate requirements between awarded suppliers based on operational requirements, service performance, lead times, product availability, manufacturing capacity, quality performance and overall value delivered.
As part of the tender process, suppliers may be required to submit pricing against a range of indicative award and allocation scenarios, which may include sole supplier, dual-source and multi-supplier models. This will allow SSEN to assess the relationship between volume allocation, pricing efficiency, supply chain resilience and value for money before finalising the award strategy.
Suppliers may also be invited to identify any additional commercial benefits, capacity commitments, service improvements or efficiencies that could be achieved through the award of multiple lots. SSEN will consider these alongside the need to maintain appropriate supply chain resilience and continuity of supply.
Suppliers will not be required to hold full SSEN technical approval prior to framework award. This approach is intended to support participation from a wider range of technically credible manufacturers. All suppliers will remain subject to SSEN’s technical assessment and approval requirements, and no supplier will be permitted to supply cable under the framework until the relevant approvals have been successfully completed.

How Scottish Hydro Electric Power Distribution plc buys Power distribution cables (CPV 3132), and who usually turns up

How the contest usually goes
Winner shares use published awards; bid and price charts use contested lots.
i
How often small and medium firms win.
Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.
The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.
Small firms have won here. Neither number says whether you qualify; it describes who has been winning.
i
How often local firms win similar work.
Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.
Local means the winner is registered in the region where that award was delivered.
A local branch does not count if the registered address is elsewhere.
Most of this buyer’s recorded winners were registered outside the region where that award was delivered.
i
How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.
Middle value in days from the bid deadline to the award date, on competitions that published both.
Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.
Half of these awards have an award date within 56 days of the bid deadline.
i
How often work is awarded with no recorded rival.
Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.
Both shares are minimums: some awards have no bid count.
Thin markets produce this too; it is not proof of a tailored specification.
Missing bid counts may hide more single-bid awards. This share is a minimum.
How many bids did past lots attract?
i
How many bids past lots received.
Each colour is a bid-count range. Only competed lots with a published count are included.

How did awards compare with estimates?
i
Where winning prices landed against estimates.
Each colour shows awards below, close to or above the published estimate, one lot at a time.
On a framework or DPS, prices are agreed when work is called off.
Past prices are a guide, not a bid price.
Not comparable on a framework or DPS: the price is set later, on each call-off.

About this data
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
- Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
- Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
- Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
