UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Borough Council of King’s Lynn and West Norfolk is procuring sewage treatment and telemetry services in Norfolk. Lot 1 covers routine inspection and maintenance of 16 sewage pumping stations and sewage treatment works, following manufacturers’ guidelines, together with breakdown repairs and monitoring of the telemetry system. Lot 2 covers installation of open-protocol telemetry units at 16 sites, with roaming SIM cards, to provide early warning of faults across the pumping stations and treatment works. The telemetry units must be transferable to a future contractor at the end of the contract. This is a services requirement, including sewage treatment, sewer-related maintenance and telemetry equipment. Each lot is a separate requirement, and suppliers may bid for either or both lots.

The procurement has reached tender: the council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Enquiries closed at 12:00 on 25 August 2026, and the tender submission deadline was 12:00 on 25 September 2026. The estimated total value is £65,500 excluding VAT (£78,600 including VAT), comprising Lot 1 at £52,000 excluding VAT (£62,400 including VAT) and Lot 2 at £13,500 excluding VAT (£16,200 including VAT). Both contracts are due to start on 1 November 2026. Lot 1 runs to 31 October 2029, with extensions of up to two years, potentially reaching 31 October 2031. Lot 2 runs to 31 December 2026. Lot 1 is evaluated on price and quality, including method statements, urgent call-outs, reporting, certification and social value. Lot 2 uses installation price weighted 60% and method statement weighted 40%.

This opportunity suits small and medium-sized businesses specialising in wastewater infrastructure, sewage treatment works, pumping-station maintenance, emergency breakdown response, telemetry installation or industrial control systems. Lot 1 requires the capacity to service 16 sites routinely, follow equipment manufacturers’ guidance, provide urgent call-outs and supply trained and qualified engineers, with service reports and certification. Strong method statements for pumping stations and sewage treatment works, dependable monitoring arrangements and evidence of social value will support competition. Lot 2 suits telemetry installers able to deploy open-protocol units across 16 sites, configure fault-warning systems and provide roaming SIM connectivity. Suppliers must ensure the installed equipment can be transferred to a new contractor, so open interfaces, clear documentation and orderly handover capability are important.
