Summary of the contracting process

The Water Services Regulation Authority (Ofwat) is inviting tenders for the "ITT for Developer Services Work (PROC.01.0676)" project focused on consulting services related to water-supply and waste consultancy. This procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with the deadline for submissions set for 11th December 2020. The projects encompass two parts: the first examines variations in developer services costs from water companies, while the second investigates future regulatory options. The contract is expected to start on 18th December 2020 and conclude by 31st March 2021, with a total budget of £102,000, and the work is to be undertaken in various locations including the West Midlands and London.

This tender presents considerable growth opportunities for consultancy firms, particularly those specialising in water regulation, business management, and development consultancy services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate as they could bring innovative approaches to the challenges outlined in the project. By addressing crucial factors affecting developer services, successful bidders will not only contribute to the regulatory landscape but also enhance their market presence in the consulting industry.

Notice Title

ITT for Developer Services Work (PROC.01.0676)

Notice Description

We are tendering for two parts to this project. Suppliers are welcome to bid for either Part 1 or Part 2, or both Parts combined. Suppliers must ensure their tender submission is clear on what Part/s they are bidding for. Part 1 is a study about the variation in water companies' costs and charges for developer services. We want to understand the extent to which variations are driven by poor cost-reflectivity, methodological differences, and regional factors. Part 2 is a study about options for the future regulation of developer services. This will feed into our emerging thinking for the price review in 2024 (PR24).
