## Summary

The East Sussex Fire Authority is inviting tenders for the "Provision of Water Management" service across its estate, aimed at preventing the build-up of harmful bacteria within the water supply. The procurement process is currently at the Tender stage, with bids due by 30th July 2021. The project falls under the services category, specifically concerning the management of water systems, with a contract value of £60,000 and a minimum threshold of £35,000. The contract is set to commence on 1st October 2021 and will run until 30th September 2024, focusing on locations within East Sussex, including the postal code BN7 2DZ.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in water management and treatment services. Companies that can demonstrate expertise in hot water systems, primary water systems, and water mains are especially well-positioned to compete. With the contract designed for open procurement, small and medium-sized enterprises are encouraged to apply, allowing them to engage with public sector projects and enhance their market presence in this critical service area.

## Notice

East Sussex Fire Authority (ESFA), on behalf of East Sussex Fire and Rescue Services (ESFRS) are looking to source a supplier to provide a water management service across the East Sussex Fire Authority estate to ensure no build-up of harmful bacteria occurs within the water supply. This requirement was originally included in our larger tender ESFA0174 for the servicing of our Air Conditioning, Mechanical and Electrical Plant, with a view to consolidating both contracts into one. Following the tender returns and the award of that contract, the decision has been taken to re-compete this requirement on its own as a separate contract. Any supplier who competed for ESFA0174, and may have additionally expressed an interest in this area of work, would be free to bid again if they wish to do so.
