Client Testimonial

Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust has partnered with EcoVate Group to run compliant procurement processes to establish the Strategic Energy and Asset Management (SEAM) Performance Framework and the Utilities Partner Framework.

I have been working closely with the EcoVate team, who have been providing specialist procurement support from 2019 and are currently still doing so today. The EcoVate team managed the SEAM Competitive Dialogue procurement process over a lengthy period of time, and I found that they were proactive, thorough, transparent and professional throughout the procurement process. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, my interactions with the EcoVate team continued seamlessly and they presented innovative solutions, to ensure that the timelines were not adversely impacted.

I also engaged EcoVate early in 2021, to undertake a new piece of work to establish a multiple supplier Utilities Partner Framework and from the outset, they worked with us do the required market research and engagement to ensure that potential stakeholders were aware of the opportunity. The Utilities Partner Framework, once established, will help the public sector address requirements in the areas of utility and fuel supply, management, forecasting and budgetary control. It gives me confidence to be working on this project with EcoVate. I would highly recommend them.
