Summary of the contracting process

Wessex Water Services Ltd has successfully awarded a framework for the provision of Ordnance Survey Data Products, intended to secure services classified under digital mapping. This procurement process, having reached the 'Award' stage, utilised a selective method via a negotiated procedure with prior competition. Located in Bath, United Kingdom, this contract required the delivery of digital and aerial mapping services within the region UKK, as signed on 17 March 2026. The framework includes critical dates such as a ten-day standstill period, permitting unsuccessful tenderers the opportunity to dispute the decision before contract finalisation. The tender was governed by regulations outlined in the Utilities Regulations 2016 and covered by the Agreement on Government Procurement (GPA).

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the digital mapping and geographic information systems sectors, particularly those specialising in comprehensive mapping solutions. It is well-suited for companies equipped with advanced technological capabilities to supply digital and aerial data, offering potential growth for firms aiming to establish long-term relationships with public utilities clients. With the possibility of providing both core and optional mapping products and services, the framework encourages participation from enterprises adept in logistical delivery and enhanced customer service in mapping technologies. Weathering the competitive selection process can pave the way for enterprises seeking to expand their portfolio in government contracts and contribute to substantial public sector projects.
