Maidstone Grammar School For Girls Electricity Supply
Framework Description
Maidstone Grammar School for Girls has set up a dynamic market under section 35 of the Procurement Act 2023 for the physical supply of electricity to all its school sites, with associated invoicing and query management services. Dynamic markets are the Procurement Act successor to DPSs and stay open to new suppliers throughout their life. The Find a Tender procurement reference is ocds-h6vhtk-068ef8.
Context & Use Case
The school will use the dynamic market to run competitive selection processes among admitted suppliers when it buys electricity, rather than being tied to one supplier. Because invoicing and query management sit in scope alongside physical supply, suppliers are judged on how they bill and handle queries as well as on price. The establishment notice was published on Find a Tender in May 2026.
Scope of Services

Buyer Benefits
An open dynamic market lets the school bring in new suppliers and run competitions whenever it needs to buy, keeping prices competitive without a full tender each time. Covering every school site in one arrangement, with invoicing and query handling included, gives the school one route for supply, billing and service across its estate.
