Genesis Housing Ltd (GHA) is establishing a DPS for the use by the G15 group of housing providers and any other UK Contracting Authority, subject to an access agreement between GHA and the Contracting Authority. GHA shall use the DPS to tender for supply contracts for its own sites. There is no guarantee of any contracts being awarded from this DPS. The award criteria for Call For Competition tenders shall be on the basis of price or price and quality at the user Contracting Authority's sole discretion. This DPS shall embrace three types of Supplies; water, electricity and gas. Suppliers must be suitably licensed (or have a realistic expectation that they shall be) in order to be admitted to the DPS.

There will be four categories of supply making up this DPS:

Only suppliers who are licenced shall be appointed to the DSP. Suppliers of electricity and/or gas must have a full supply licence obtained through the Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (OFGEM) pursuant to the The Gas Act 1986 (as amended) and The Electricity Act 1989 (as amended). Suppliers of Water must hold water supply and/or sewerage licences (WSSL). Applicants who reasonable expect that they will hold a WSSL licence within two months of their application will be treated as if they had such a licence. However, they shall not be able to bid in any Call-Off unless they have the necessary licence.
