## Summary

Scottish Water, based in Glasgow, has completed the procurement process titled "Supply of Low Emission Structural Steel & Rebar," categorized under the industry of steel goods aimed to be supplied across Scotland. This concluded tender process was initiated for environmentally responsible options in structural steel, focusing on lower carbon footprints. The procurement was carried out under a limited award procedure without prior competition due to absence of suitable tenders. The final award was signed on 24 February 2026, highlighting a contract valued at £15,500,000. The tender process was notably focused on transitioning to less carbon-intensive production methods and ensuring economic stability by moving away from traditional steelmaking dependent on volatile fossil fuels. The successful awardee for this procurement was ArcelorMittal Distribution Solutions UK.

This tender paves the way for businesses involved in the eco-friendly steel industry to benefit, particularly those specialising in low-emission products. Companies with capabilities to meet evolving environmental standards and those already engaged in electric arc furnace (EAF) processes could find growth opportunities through future collaborations within the framework. The strategic nature of this procurement supports the expansion of businesses willing to innovate and adapt to sustainable practices. With an award given to a large-scale supplier, the potential for other enterprises, especially those with substantial resources and a focus on sustainability, to compete in upcoming procurements remains promising.

## Notice

SUPPLY OF LOW EMISSION STRUCTURAL STEEL 

The objective of the new framework is to enhance visibility and control over steel expenditure, while ensuring that the steel procured is the most environmentally responsible option; specifically, lower carbon-intensive processes and materials. Transitioning to EAF does not carry an inherent cost premium and, moving forward, offers enhanced cost stability as EAF is less exposed to the volatility of scarce fossil fuels and environmental surcharges that affect traditional methods.

The framework is designed with flexibility, allowing the introduction of additional steel products, such as rebar, over its duration.
