This procurement is currently in the planning stage with a deadline for responses set for 14th June 2021 at 10:00 am. The company is based in Warrington, UK, and the procurement process falls under the goods category. The tender has been initiated with an anticipated future notice expected on 6th September 2021 to advertise further procurement opportunities to secure the long-term supply of Ferric Sulphate, addressing increasing demand over the next four years. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses offering chemical supply and delivery services, particularly those specialising in industrial chemicals or water treatment solutions. Suppliers with the capability to fulfil the requirements for Ferric Sulphate, including logistics and quality assurance, are well-positioned to compete. As the demand is projected to rise year on year until the financial year 2024/25, companies that can demonstrate reliability and capacity for large-scale supply will be particularly favoured in this increasingly competitive market. ## Notice United Utilities has a requirement for the supply and delivery of Ferric Sulphate. Ferric Sulphate or (Ferric Sulfate) (or Fe2(SO4)3) is used on both water and wastewater sites at United Utilities as a coagulant. Ferric Sulphate is an inorganic chemical compound that is used to lower pH and/or flocculate contaminants in wastewater to aid in co-precipitation and removal of solids and metals. On clean water sites ferric sulphate is used as a coagulant. The demand for Ferric Sulphate is increasing and will continue to do so over the next 4 years, after which it will stabilise at the higher volume. The purpose of this pre-market engagement is to gain a view across a number of key areas to help determine our strategy and best approach to secure the long term supply of Ferric Sulphate, catering for the increased demand. Any subsequent procurement will be advertised at a later date via a separate notice. ### Lot Information Lot 1 United Utilities has a requirement for the supply and delivery of Ferric Sulphate.
