Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by the HM Government of Gibraltar involves the design, build, finance, and operation of an Urban Wastewater Treatment Plant in Gibraltar. This procurement falls under the industry category of construction works for sewage treatment plants, with environmental services as an additional category. The award stage was reached with the contract awarded to Eco-Waters Ltd on 30th June 2025, for a total value of £250 million over a 25-year period, starting from 11th July 2025 until 10th July 2050. The process was conducted through an open procedure, and potential suppliers were initially invited to submit their interest by 10th July 2023.

This significant contract presents substantial opportunities for providers specializing in construction and environmental services, given the project's size and the long-term operational period. The tender's focus on design, build, finance, and operation elements aligns well with businesses that offer comprehensive project delivery and lifecycle management services. Particularly, companies with expertise in technical, operational, and environmental management, as well as a strong operational track record, would be well-positioned to benefit from such large-scale infrastructure projects, fostering business growth and providing a platform for showcasing capabilities on an international stage. The procurement structure, while selective in considering companies from Gibraltar, the UK, or those covered by relevant trade agreements, provides a focused opportunity for firms meeting these criteria.
