As the EU tendering process for competitive energy tendering for Universities gathered pace, TEC’s membership base grew, and developed further into the wider FE sector. Strong links with the Office of Government Commerce and other central Government bodies were built, and it is a key benefit to all TEC members that all activities undertaken by TEC are fully compliant with both public sector and EU procurement requirements.

Every TEC member institution has voting rights on both the governance and policy of TEC, and as a not for profit organisation, members can fully trust in the transparency of the management and that policy decisions are taken with the benefit to the membership as a key priority.

The TEC team provides an outstanding resource to the membership, ensuring that all aspects of energy cost management and procurement are delivered effectively.

This combination of expertise in energy cost management combined with unrivalled education and public sector experience ensure that TEC fully understand the needs of their membership and can deliver first class solutions.
