## Summary

The procurement process for the Uplands Development involves the diversion of water pipelines by Portsmouth Water, necessary for the development near the new roundabout on Woodhouse Lane in Winchester, South East England. This direct procurement, initiated as a single tender action below threshold, was awarded to Portsmouth Water on 10th March 2021, with a total contract value of £737,350. The contract period runs from 1st April 2021 to 30th September 2021. The procurement falls under the public utilities category, and the completion status is noted as active.

This tender presents a unique opportunity for businesses within the utilities sector, especially those with expertise in water infrastructure and pipeline works. Companies specialising in utility services that can handle specialised tasks directly involving water infrastructure would likely find this contract advantageous. Businesses looking to expand their portfolio or expertise in utility contractor works, particularly in the South East region, are encouraged to explore similar future opportunities.

## Notice

The water mains pipes in the vicinity of the new Woodlands Lane roundabout are the property of utility contractor Portsmouth Water. In order to facilitate the new development, these pipes must be diverted and that is only possible using Portsmouth Water and Their appointed contractor. The reasoning for this waiver to be granted is under (iv) "execution of works or provision of services of a specialised nature which can only be carried out by one contractor (where no reasonable alternative or substitute exists)" as Portsmouth Water own the property of the water pipes that are required to be diverted, there is no other contractor who would be entitled to carry out the required diversion works.
