Notice Title
Procurement of Tank Covers
Notice Description
Severn Trent are currently investigating the potential procurement of supply and installation of covers for a range of ASP (Activated Sludge Plant) tanks at up to 23 of our sewage treatment works with some sites having multiple ASP assets. Severn Trent is also considering the procurement of covers for its Liquor Treatment Plants. The intention is to collaboratively work together with supplier(s) to identify the best solution for our sites. The purpose of the cover is to capture gas emissions from the mixed liquors in the tank, which constantly receives aeration with high airflow. We require covers that can deal with air pressure and cope with a certain level of pressure fluctuation. As such the cover should be sealed to the tank and reasonable steps should be taken to minimise the leakage of gas. It is expected that extraction points will be required to remove the gas for processing.
Planning Information
STW are investigating the procurement for the supply and delivery of covers of our ASP tanks (Activated Sludge Plant). We are keen to engage with interested suppliers to help us inform our sourcing strategy and procurement process. Any future Tender Notice will be published and response to this pre market engagement is optional and does not contribute to any procurement process. All information gathered as part of this market engagement process will be used to inform our understanding of the market and support us in refining our requirements. We will publish an initial questionnaire (please see link below) inviting interested suppliers to provide information on their products and services. Following review of the responses to this questionnaire we reserve the right to contact suppliers individually to discuss their responses further and explore any additional areas that may arise during the market engagement period. https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=mR5c4eN7XEmXjuynuOqfMYDU6ocOxeJDlDF1UpKb1EdUMzY1TzFIRTdDNVZQN1ZQWTdXMzhZNFo2NS4u Whilst the period for the engagement is until 31 March 2026, we would like to hear from suppliers as soon as possible through the completion of the questionnaire (link above).
