## Summary

The Southend-on-Sea City Council is conducting a procurement process for water management services, including Legionella Control, for various public buildings and delegated sites within the city. This initiative is part of an open procedure and has been compartmentalised into two lots. Lot 1 focuses on Risk Assessments and regular water testing for council properties, while Lot 2 involves managing the water feature at City Beach Marine Parade. The procurement aims to secure contracts under the JCT Measured Term Contract 2016 Edition, with a total estimated value of £780,000. This procurement is at the award stage, and Northumbrian Water Ltd has been awarded the contract for Lot 1. The tender process initially commenced on 15th November 2024, and bids were expected by 17th December 2024.

This tender provides substantial potential for business growth, especially for companies specialising in water hygiene management and technical testing services. Firms adept in handling large-scale water treatment and compliance with ACOP L8 standards are well-suited for such projects. The awarded contracts offer considerable revenue opportunities and the prospect of long-term engagement with the Southend-on-Sea City Council. Given the specific nature of the services required, businesses with expertise in managing public infrastructure and maintaining environmental health standards are particularly encouraged to pursue similar opportunities.
