UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Severn Trent Water Limited, in collaboration with Hafren Dyfrdwy Cyfyngedig, is initiating a tender process for fencing services, targeting suppliers capable of delivering a range of fencing products and installation work. This procurement, classified under the works industry category, is currently in the planning stage, with preliminary market engagement open until 28 April 2026. Procurement activities pertain to locations in Coventry and Wrexham, operating under UK and Welsh devolved regulations. Suppliers interested in participating in this tender can expect a contract period beginning on 1 November 2026 and concluding on 31 October 2029, with an estimated gross contract value of £1,800,000. The buyer, Severn Trent Water Limited, is eager to engage with potential suppliers to align with their fencing needs.

This tender offers lucrative opportunities for businesses specialising in fencing manufacturing and installation. The focus is on a variety of items, including safety fencing and wire-mesh fencing, which promises a broad opportunity for businesses with expertise in these areas. Suppliers, particularly small and medium enterprises, well-versed in this sector stand a strong chance to compete effectively, especially those able to meet the project’s specific requirements and deliver quality installations on a significant scale. This serves as a gateway for such firms to establish or expand their footprint in the utilities sector, assuring steady project work and collaboration with leading private utility entities in the UK. With the potential for a considerable contract over three years, it represents a promising growth opportunity for businesses ready to meet this challenge.
