Summary of the contracting process

The Water Services Regulation Authority (Ofwat) is initiating a tender for "Wastewater infrastructure engineering expertise and technical support", with an estimated value of £32,000. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically focusing on consulting services for water-supply and wastewater management systems. The tender period will close on 9 February 2018, and the contract is expected to commence on 19 February 2018, lasting until 18 June 2018. The work is primarily to review and summarise operational data related to Wastewater Treatment Works to ensure compliance with statutory obligations.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in engineering consultancy, particularly those with expertise in wastewater management. Companies adept in data analysis, compliance auditing, and providing technical support will find this procurement particularly relevant. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, and firms with a strong track record in delivering similar consulting services could greatly benefit from this project, not only through the initial contract but also by potentially securing additional follow-up work in the subsequent months.

Notice Title

Wastewater infrastructure engineering expertise and technical support

Notice Description

The objective of this tender process is to undertake a discrete first piece of work which must be completed by 30 March 2018. The work will provide the engineering expertise and technical support needed to review and summarise data and information relating to the management, operation and performance of relevant wastewater infrastructure - specifically Wastewater Treatment Works (WwTW) and to draw conclusions as to whether the data and information summarised suggests that the company operating those WwTW has (or not as the case may be) met its licence and statutory obligations. We may also then require ad-hoc follow up advice and support linked to and following the completion of the above described work during April and May 2018. Such ad-hoc follow up advice and support may be in the form of telephone or written advice but we are unable to confirm our exact requirements until the end of March 2018 at the earliest. Thus the contract will be for 4 months from commencement date to provide the flexibility should there be any delays for the follow on work.
