Summary of the contracting process

Post Office Limited procured water and wastewater services for its sites in Scotland. The requirement covers the supply and distribution of water and the provision of wastewater services at those sites. This is a utilities services contract, classified under water distribution and related services (CPV 65100000). The buyer is Post Office Limited, and the service delivery is in Scotland. The procurement was arranged as a single lot, covering the requirement as one package. The selected supplier, Water Plus Limited, is based in Stoke-on-Trent; the service itself is for Post Office’s Scottish sites.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Post Office Limited selected Water Plus Limited for the single-lot requirement. The contract was signed on 12 June 2026 and runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2029. Its value is £157,040 excluding VAT, or £188,448 including VAT. The procurement was described as below threshold, with the specific procedure not identified. The contract is for water and wastewater services; the published details do not set out a separate evaluation formula or qualification criteria. The award covered the Scottish sites and was made to Water Plus Limited.

For suppliers looking to compete for this requirement in future, the award demonstrates demand from Post Office Limited for water and wastewater services across its Scottish sites, packaged as a single contract. A credible competitor would need to manage water supply and wastewater services for a dispersed portfolio of sites in Scotland, with the operational capacity to maintain reliable service across the contract. The successful supplier is a large company, indicating that the buyer selected an established provider; this is useful context for businesses assessing the scale and delivery capability needed to compete. Water and wastewater suppliers with experience serving multi-site customers and coordinating service across Scottish locations are the closest fit to this specific requirement.
