Lot 2 covers the supply, storage, stock management, fulfilment and delivery of flow regulators in agreed sizes, flow rates and specifications. The requirement supports planned programmes, customer campaigns, bulk orders and changing operational demand, with associated customer support and reporting requirements. The process has reached tender: United Utilities invited offers through an open competitive flexible procedure using a single-stage Conditions of Participation Questionnaire and Invitation to Negotiate. Enquiries closed on 9 October 2026 at 09:00, offers are due by 20 November 2026 at 15:00, and the award decision is due by 10 December 2026. It is a closed framework with contracts awarded through reopening competition. The total estimated value is £15,000,000 excluding VAT (£18,000,000 including VAT): Lot 1 is £3,000,000 excluding VAT (£3,600,000 including VAT), and Lot 2 is £12,000,000 excluding VAT (£14,400,000 including VAT). Each lot is planned from 23 December 2026 to 23 December 2028, with annual extensions available up to 23 December 2034. Evaluation is 30% technical quality and 70% commercial cost. This opportunity suits SMEs and established suppliers of water-efficiency products, flow-control equipment, fulfilment services or related digital platforms. Suppliers need reliable, compliant and scalable products, with capacity for storage, stock control, picking, packing, fulfilment, delivery and bulk programme demand. Lot 2 suppliers must meet applicable regulatory, quality and testing requirements, including WRAS and Regulation 31 approval where required. The requirement also favours businesses able to demonstrate resilient supply chains, accurate stock and performance reporting, effective customer support and flexibility as programme volumes and priorities change. Lot 1 is relevant to suppliers that can provide a branded customer survey and ordering platform, handle customer data securely where applicable, and support product quality assurance and operational continuity. ## Notice United Utilities is seeking to establish a framework for the supply, storage, stock management, fulfilment and delivery of water efficiency devices and flow regulators. The framework will support United Utilities' AMP8 and AMP9 water demand reduction commitments, including reductions in domestic Per Capita Consumption and non-household business demand. The requirement is divided into two lots: Lot 1 covers water efficiency devices, associated fulfilment services and a UU-branded customer water usage survey and ordering platform; Lot 2 covers flow regulators in agreed sizes, flow rates and specifications. Appointed supplier(s) must be able to provide compliant, reliable and scalable products and services that support planned programmes, customer campaigns, bulk orders and changes in operational demand. Suppliers must demonstrate product quality, regulatory compliance, supply chain resilience, accurate reporting, effective stock management and appropriate customer support. This includes relevant approvals and assurance evidence, secure handling of customer data where applicable, and the ability to respond flexibly as programme volumes and priorities evolve. The overall objective is to secure a robust, value-for-money supply arrangement that enables United Utilities to deliver water efficiency activity at scale, maintain continuity of supply, protect customer experience and contribute to measurable reductions in water consumption across the North West. ### Lot Information PRO005128-Goods-Framework-Water Saving Devices - Lot 1 Supply, storage, stock management, picking, packing, fulfilment and delivery of water efficiency devices such as flow regulators, water butts, shower regulators, tap inserts, showerheads, cistern devices, toilet leak detection strips and other approved or innovative water saving products.
