## Summary

The procurement process is led by the Water Services Regulation Authority, focusing on a project titled "Support to allocate the regulatory capital value to the bioresource price control." This initiative falls within the business and management consultancy services category and is based in both the West Midlands and London, United Kingdom. The tender concluded on 9 November 2016, with the award announcement published on 2 March 2017, having been granted to Reckon LLP. The contract period started on 21 November 2016 and is set to conclude on 27 January 2017.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for management consultancy firms looking to expand their services within the water sector. Companies that specialise in regulatory frameworks and economic assessments, particularly those with experience working alongside government bodies or in the water industry, would find this contract particularly relevant. As SMEs are encouraged to participate, smaller consultancies may also leverage their niche expertise to compete effectively in this bidding process.

## Notice

The overall objectives of the project are to: a) Advise Ofwat on the appropriate approach for allocating the RCV to the bio resources price control. This will require an assessment of the benefits and disadvantages of a range of potential methods, informed by analysis of relevant examples where methods have been applied in other sectors and/or internationally. b) Set out the major challenges and risks of adopting each approach in forming a recommendation on the approach that is most likely to satisfy our policy objectives and enable implementation of a robust RCV allocation for sludge assets. c) Outline the information requirements underpinning the recommended method and evaluate the material issues and challenges associated with collecting the data robustly. d) Develop guidance that will promote a consistent approach to be taken across the industry in providing the required information.
