Framework: winning a place puts you on an approved list for future work. It's the entry ticket, not guaranteed work.
In plain English
Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN) is setting up a multi-supplier framework for the supply and delivery of low voltage (LV) and medium voltage (MV) cables, split across six lots covering concentric, waveform, auxiliary and 11kV/33kV cables in North and South areas, running from 1 April 2027 to 30 December 2032. A place on the framework is the entry ticket to future work, not guaranteed orders, as SSEN plans to appoint up to three suppliers per lot and will allocate work based on performance, price and resilience.
Good fit for: Manufacturers and suppliers of LV and MV electrical cable products able to meet technical approval standards after award.
- Must pass SSEN technical approval before supplying
no supplier will be permitted to supply cable under the framework until the relevant approvals have been successfully completed
- May need to price multiple supply scenarios
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

What the buyer says
Scottish 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.
