Summary of the contracting process

Scottish Water is procuring PEWAG lifting chains for use across Scotland. The supply includes pump chains, welded chain assemblies and chain-link shackles, to meet Scottish Water’s established standards. This is a goods requirement for suppliers able to provide lifting-chain products and assemblies suitable for the buyer’s water operations. Delivery is Scotland-wide. The specification and the buyer’s standards are set out in the procurement documents, which define the detailed product requirements. The agreement is structured as a framework for the supply of these items.

Scottish Water invited offers through a negotiated procedure with a prior call for competition, using a selective process. The procurement reached tender stage. The stated submission deadline was 1 December 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The estimated procurement value is £1.6 million. The contract period is 2,880 days. The arrangement is a framework with one participant, and the requirement is organised as a single lot. The buyer set a two-stage process with four candidates to be invited to the second stage. Bids are to be submitted in writing, in English; variants are not permitted. Economic and technical selection criteria apply, with candidate reduction governed by the procurement documents.

This opportunity suits manufacturers, distributors or specialist suppliers with the ability to source and supply PEWAG lifting chains, including pump chains, welded chain assemblies and chain-link shackles. Suppliers need to demonstrate that their products meet Scottish Water’s established standards and technical specifications, and that they can support supply across Scotland under a long-running framework. The selective, two-stage competition means that relevant technical and economic credentials will matter, and only four candidates are to proceed to the second stage. Businesses with proven experience supplying lifting-chain products for demanding operational environments, dependable sourcing and delivery arrangements, and the capacity to serve a wide geographic area are well placed to compete. The procurement documents contain the detailed requirements and selection information.
