This procurement falls under the services category, specifically focusing on consulting services for water-supply and wastewater management systems. The tender period will close on 9 February 2018, and the contract is expected to commence on 19 February 2018, lasting until 18 June 2018. The work is primarily to review and summarise operational data related to Wastewater Treatment Works to ensure compliance with statutory obligations. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in engineering consultancy, particularly those with expertise in wastewater management. Companies adept in data analysis, compliance auditing, and providing technical support will find this procurement particularly relevant. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, and firms with a strong track record in delivering similar consulting services could greatly benefit from this project, not only through the initial contract but also by potentially securing additional follow-up work in the subsequent months. ## Notice The objective of this tender process is to undertake a discrete first piece of work which must be completed by 30 March 2018. The work will provide the engineering expertise and technical support needed to review and summarise data and information relating to the management, operation and performance of relevant wastewater infrastructure - specifically Wastewater Treatment Works (WwTW) and to draw conclusions as to whether the data and information summarised suggests that the company operating those WwTW has (or not as the case may be) met its licence and statutory obligations. We may also then require ad-hoc follow up advice and support linked to and following the completion of the above described work during April and May 2018. Such ad-hoc follow up advice and support may be in the form of telephone or written advice but we are unable to confirm our exact requirements until the end of March 2018 at the earliest. Thus the contract will be for 4 months from commencement date to provide the flexibility should there be any delays for the follow on work. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4311070c-7172-41c1-a1b0-ad3e775205e8 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 25 Jan 2018 | | Submission deadline | 9 Feb 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 19 Feb 2018 - 18 Jun 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £32,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | WATER SERVICES REGULATION AUTHORITY (OFWAT) | | Locality | BIRMINGHAM | | Post town | Birmingham | | Postcode | B5 4UA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG31 Birmingham | | Local authority | Birmingham | | Electoral ward | Ladywood | | Westminster constituency | Birmingham Ladywood | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England), TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 90713100 - Consulting services for water-supply and waste-water other than for construction ## Release History - 25 Jan 2018 at 17:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4311070c-7172-41c1-a1b0-ad3e775205e8 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4311070c-7172-41c1-a1b0-ad3e775205e8 25th January 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - http://www.mytenders.org/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JAN150812 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.ofwat.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
