## Summary

Ofwat has completed a procurement process titled "Stakeholder Communication and Engagement Support," aimed at providing consultancy services to navigate public scrutiny and government reviews within the water sector's regulatory regime.

The contract spans from 13th February to 31st March 2025, and is designed to include robust planning for communications across several engagement teams. The project location is based in England, specifically in Birmingham.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in business and management consultancy services.
