Summary of the contracting process

South Cambridgeshire District Council successfully completed a procurement process for the maintenance of Webbs Hole Pumping Station, located in Swavesey, Cambridge. The procurement was conducted under an open method, with a title "Webbs Hole Pumping Station Responsive and Planned Maintenance," categorised under works for flood-defences maintenance. The contract award date was 28th April 2026, with a key milestone for signature scheduled for 4th May 2026. This opportunity attracted three bids and concluded with an award to FENFLOW LIMITED. The contract period spans five years beginning on 11th May 2026, with potential annual renewals extending up to 2034. The procurement category was classified as below threshold, indicating a smaller-scale operation favourable to SMEs.

This tender offers business growth potential particularly for SMEs specialising in maintenance works, given its scope and competitive nature. With a focus on flood-defences maintenance, businesses experienced in infrastructure, particularly those dealing with water management and environmental defences, such as FENFLOW LIMITED, are well-suited to compete in similar tenders. The procurement method ensures fair competition, allowing businesses to leverage quality and pricing strategies to secure contracts that promise long-term engagements, including renewals extending over several years. Additionally, the prominence of South Cambridgeshire District Council as the contracting authority may enhance visibility and business credibility within the public sector.
