## Summary

Northumbrian Water Group Limited (NWL) is inviting tenders for the "NW2880 - Intelligence & Analytics Partners Framework Agreement". This is a procurement process for business analysis consultancy services, classified under CPV code 72221000, which aims to establish a framework to support the development and implementation of data science solutions over the next three to five years. The procurement stage is currently active, with expressions of interest due by 28 February 2025. The services will be delivered across the UK, and the procurement method involves a negotiated procedure with prior call for competition.
