UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involved the University of the West of England as the buying organisation, initiating a tender for the repair of a 10" water main. This project falls under the works category, specifically water-main refurbishment construction work. Located in Bristol, UK, the procurement reached the award stage with a contract value of £39,198 in gross terms, amounting to £47,037.60. The contract was signed on 25th March 2025, covering work scheduled from 26th March to 27th March 2025. Although the procurement method was below threshold and largely unknown, it adhered to the legal framework established under UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in construction and infrastructure maintenance to gain a foothold in the public sector. Companies specialising in water-main repairs, excavation, and site supervision are particularly well-positioned to benefit. Given the focus on refurbishment and the specific nature of the work, small to medium enterprises (SMEs) like H&V Fusion & Drilling Limited, which successfully secured the contract, are well-suited to compete in such procurement processes, particularly if they can offer competitive pricing and specialised expertise.
