Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Water Services Regulation Authority, also known as Ofwat, recently completed a procurement process titled "Marketing," classified under recruitment services for the marketing sector. The procurement was managed through a limited method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication due to extreme urgency. The process was conducted under the ESPO Framework for recruitment services. Although initially planned to include a marketing professional for the Water Efficiency Campaign, the lot was ultimately cancelled. The contract was awarded on 1st September 2025, with a total value of £67,663.06, to Michael Page International Recruitment Limited, with delivery set in the UK.

This procurement process highlights significant opportunities for businesses in the recruitment industry, particularly those able to operate under stringent timelines and conditions necessitated by urgent requirements. Companies like large recruitment firms are well-positioned to benefit from such opportunities due to their resource capability and quick adaptability. The engagement with Ofwat could further open avenues for businesses looking to expand their services in the public utility sector, providing specialised recruitment solutions that align with strategic national campaigns.
