What the buyer is looking for

Supply of natural gas to the four points of consumption of the UPV listed in the technical specifications: Vera Campus (València, RLTB.7) and Carbonell Building, Ferrándiz Building and Sports Complex (Alcoi, RLTB.5 and RL.4 rates). The reference consumption is 8,759,073 kWh/year, recorded in the last twelve months. Natural gas covers the thermal demand of these facilities, so consumption is concentrated in winter: 82% of annual consumption is recorded from November to March. The contract should ensure continuity of supply for 12 months, from 1 January to 31 December 2027, with the possibility of a 12-month extension

Clement What the numbers say about this buyer

  • 37% of this buyer's awards went to companies that had already won here before (635 awards since 2018, spread over 322 companies). That is well below the sector norm (56%) — this buyer switches suppliers more often than others.n = 635 awards since 2018
  • 75% of the bids received came from small and medium-sized enterprises (111 procedures with a bid mix). Sector: 38%.n = 111
  • The median procedure drew 2 bids (269 procedures with a bid count); 42% ended with a single bidder. Sector: median 3 bids.n = 269
  • The award came in at a median 87% of the estimated value (247 awards with both estimate and value) — pricing at the estimate is usually too high here. Sector: 80%.n = 247

Tactics

When this buyer has awarded in this sector, usually 6 or more bids came in. Many compete here — price and references decide. (Based on 3 completed awards — not a statement about this procedure.)

This procedure allows 36 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 27 (median of 7,300 procedures). Much more generous than usual — time for a thorough bid rather than a quick one.

Foreign bidders

In Spain · Petroleum & fuels, 123 contracts went to foreign companies over the last 3 years (of 15,922 recorded awards) — mostly from France, Portugal, Italy.

Submission language: Spanish.

Measured from linked award data; foreign winners bidding through a local subsidiary count as domestic — the true share is higher.
