Summary of the contracting process

Wolverhampton City Council has completed a procurement process for the supply of water and wastewater services to its corporate buildings and schools. This contract is classified under "Water mains" in the industry category and pertains to the location of Wolverhampton, region UKG39. The process was in the "Award" stage as of 9th October 2025, with the contract signed by Anglian Water Business (National) Limited on 6th October 2025. The procurement method used was a "limited" award procedure without a prior call for competition, chosen due to the absence of competition for technical reasons. The total value of the contract is £5,446,860 GBP.

This procurement provides notable opportunities for businesses involved in water distribution and related services, especially those equipped to handle significant service contracts for public entities. Given that the process was a direct award to a single supplier due to technical specifications, it highlights opportunities primarily for specialised suppliers who can meet exclusive technical requirements. Companies with unique capabilities in delivering such vital services to regional or local authorities might find opportunities for growth by meeting or exceeding these specific criteria, as demonstrated by Anglian Water Business (National) Limited, a SME, being awarded the contract.
