Energy Procurement and Site Works Partnership Services for ICPs
Supporting Your Projects, Managing Your Utilities, Powering Your Growth
As an Independent Connection Provider, you operate at the heart of the UK’s utility infrastructure development. From coordinating multi-phase housing developments to managing complex commercial connections, your business demands reliable energy solutions that keep pace with your project delivery schedules.
With increasingly competitive margins, complex client requirements, and growing demand for sustainable development solutions, ICPs need a strategic partner for energy procurement, utility coordination, and comprehensive site works management.
That’s where we come in.
Energy Procurement Built for ICPs
Over the years, we’ve built strong relationships with a range of UK suppliers, enabling us to secure the best value energy rates for Independent Connection Providers and their clients. We understand that your projects operate on strict timelines and budgets, and you can’t afford energy supply delays or procurement complications that impact your deliverables.
Our procurement service compares a range of prices across different contract lengths to guarantee the most competitive rates for temporary supplies, permanent connections, and your own operational requirements. Whether you’re managing single developments or multiple concurrent projects nationwide, we’ll take care of the entire procurement process from start to finish.
We secure:
- Competitive fixed-rate contracts for temporary builders’ supplies and permanent connections
- Flexible terms that align with your phased development schedules and handover dates
- Volume agreements that reflect your project portfolio and anticipated growth
- Green energy options that support your clients’ sustainability commitments and planning conditions
- Pre-negotiated rates for rapid deployment on urgent connection projects
Bill and Supplier Management Tailored to ICP Operations
Our services go beyond procurement. We offer a comprehensive supplier and bill management package designed specifically for the complexities of ICP operations—ensuring accurate billing across multiple projects, phases, and client handovers.
Bill Validation
Monthly bill validation and error checking across all temporary and permanent supplies
Multi-Phase Tracking

Cost Reconciliation

Compliance Documentation
Comprehensive record-keeping and documentation for regulatory compliance and client reporting
ICPs deal with unique billing challenges: temporary supplies that need precise tracking, phased completions requiring careful meter management, and the critical importance of accurate records for client handovers. We understand these industry-specific requirements and ensure billing accurately reflects usage patterns, contract terms, and project milestones across your entire portfolio.
Comprehensive Utility Coordination & Site Works Partnership
New connections, supply alterations, meter installations, and infrastructure coordination are at the core of your business. However, managing relationships with multiple DNOs, gas transporters, and suppliers across concurrent projects can stretch your resources. This is why forward-thinking ICPs across the UK partner with us to streamline operations and enhance service delivery.

The Importance of Green Energy for ICP Projects
Sustainability is no longer optional in property development. From local authority planning requirements to housebuilder commitments, renewable energy has become a fundamental requirement for modern developments. Procuring green energy positions your ICP business as a forward-thinking partner that delivers complete, compliant solutions.
Planning Compliance
Many developments now have renewable energy conditions. Green procurement helps your clients meet planning requirements seamlessly.
Housebuilder Demands
Major housebuilders have net-zero commitments. Offering renewable energy procurement enhances your value proposition and helps secure contracts.
Regulatory Future-Proofing
Building regulations continue to tighten on carbon emissions. Early renewable adoption protects your clients from future retrofit costs.
Marketing Advantage
Developments with renewable energy credentials command premium prices and sell faster—a compelling benefit for your developer clients.
Competitive Differentiation
Offering comprehensive energy solutions, including green procurement, sets you apart from ICPs providing connections alone.
Corporate Responsibility
Demonstrating environmental leadership strengthens your reputation with clients, local authorities, and industry partners.
