Summary of the contracting process

Broadland District Council and South Norfolk Council sought Legionella risk management and water hygiene consultancy services for their property portfolios. The work covers assets in both council areas and includes water-supply and wastewater consultancy, along with services relating to water pollution (CPV 90713100 and 90733000). The councils are the buyers; East Suffolk Council managed the procurement. Delivery is across the Broadland District Council and South Norfolk Council areas. The requirement is a single service lot covering the councils’ properties, rather than separate contracts for each council. The work is intended to support legionella risk management and water hygiene across those assets. Suppliers specialising in water hygiene, legionella consultancy or related environmental water services should assess the detailed scope in the procurement appendices before deciding whether the requirement matches their service offer.

The councils invited tenders through an open procedure. The enquiry deadline was 5 November 2026 at 17:00, and the tender submission deadline was 16 November 2026 at 17:00. The planned contract period runs from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2028, with two optional one-year extensions, allowing a maximum term through 31 December 2030. The award decision was scheduled by 10 December 2026. Quality accounts for 60% of the evaluation and price for 40%. The procurement is a single lot. Its published estimated value is £0 gross. Tenders may be submitted electronically in English. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. Payment terms are 30 days, with further financial terms set out in the tender documents.

This opportunity is suited to suppliers with practical experience in legionella risk management and water hygiene services for building and property portfolios. Relevant capability includes assessing water systems and legionella risks, advising on appropriate management controls, and delivering water hygiene support across assets in two council areas. Suppliers should be equipped to manage a portfolio-wide service rather than a single-site assignment, and to provide consistent delivery across the councils’ properties. The evaluation places greater weight on quality than price, so bidders able to demonstrate a strong technical approach and reliable service delivery should be well placed to compete. The procurement invites suitably qualified and experienced contractors; the specific qualifications, technical requirements and service detail are set out in the tender appendices. No particular accreditation is identified in the published summary of requirements.
