Summary of the contracting process

Redditch Borough Council has initiated a tender process for the replacement of water mains serving both residential and commercial properties. The project, classified under construction work for water and sewage pipelines, aims to enhance water distribution infrastructure within the United Kingdom. This open competition procurement is part of the 'works' category, with a substantial estimated value of £2,500,000. Interested parties must submit their bids by 30th March 2026, with inquiries ending on 16th March 2026. The contract period is set to span from 1st June 2026 to 31st May 2029, having renewal options for extensions. The evaluation criteria for tenders include a 70% price and 30% quality weighting.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in construction and infrastructure projects, particularly those with expertise in water-main refurbishment. Companies with experience in handling similar scale and complexity projects should consider submitting their proposals. As the project involves open competition, it is an attractive opportunity for small to medium enterprises looking to expand their portfolio in the public sector.
