Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process focused on a framework agreement titled "MRO and Tools Framework," conducted by Yorkshire Water Services Limited. It involved establishing a framework to cover Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO) and the supply of tools, including small repairs and minor fabrication services, catering to their Engineering, Operational, and Craft Teams. The procurement was categorised under goods with the CPV classification of mechanical spare parts, except engines and engine parts. The process progressed through various stages, culminating in the award stage, where multiple awards have been activated. The procurement method included an open procedure covered by the GPA, involving multiple lots that were eventually cancelled. The primary location for the delivery of goods and services is within the UKE region, with essential dates including the recent award completion on 4th August 2025.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses involved in manufacturing, supplying mechanical parts, electrical components, valves, and tools to secure a place in the multi-supplier framework, estimated to be valued at £28m excluding VAT. Organisations with capabilities in minor fabrication and MRO services stand to benefit significantly. The framework focuses on operational and commercial efficiency by ensuring consistent quality and streamlined supplier management across Yorkshire Water's operations. Businesses interested in applying should consider the strategic approach taken by Yorkshire Water, which anticipates engaging between 15-25 suppliers, allowing for geographical flexibility in product and service delivery. The tender's open nature could appeal to businesses seeking to expand their footprint within the Yorkshire region, particularly those capable of adapting to evolving procurement requirements.
