## Summary

Central Bedfordshire Council has procured water retail and supply, together with sewerage services, for its operational property portfolio across Central Bedfordshire. The requirement covers approximately 42 water supplies. The work is water distribution and related services (CPV 65100000), serving Council-operated sites. The contract is a single package covering the Council’s water and sewerage provision across its property estate.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Anglian Water Business. The Council used a direct award call-off under the competitively procured LASER Y22013 Supply of Water and Sewerage Services Framework Agreement; a separate competition was not held. One bid was recorded. Price was the stated award criterion. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and is active. Its value is £371,760. The associated lot is recorded as cancelled, while the award and contract are active; the data does not explain this discrepancy.

This award shows demand for a supplier able to manage water supply and sewerage services across a local authority’s operational property estate, including a portfolio of around 42 water supplies. A credible competitor when this requirement next comes to market would need the capability to provide both water retail and supply and sewerage services across Central Bedfordshire, and to serve multiple council-operated sites. The Council used a call-off route through a competitively procured framework, with price as the stated award criterion. Suppliers seeking comparable work with this buyer should therefore be positioned to meet the framework’s call-off terms and deliver the combined services at portfolio scale.
