About

Ofgem awarded a contract to Mark Dalton for assisting in vetting shipper applications, including interviewing shippers to ensure they are set up in a way that provides assurance to the Authority that they can properly run their business.

The successful tenderer was required to have deep and varied experience as a shipper to properly question shippers and provide baselines for expected 'good' answers.

Ofgem also required the tenderer to provide question and answer time to ask about the market, how to conduct an interview, how to assess responses, and what red flags to look out for.

The need was urgent due to the pipeline of applications and the automatic granting of licences if decisions are not made within a set time period.

The contract value is £80,000.
