In plain English

Severn Trent Water is buying ductile iron pipes and fittings (metal pipes used in water supply systems) through a framework agreement worth around £71 million. Suppliers will need to provide pipes and fittings that meet European standards EN545 and EN598, including both standard pipes and fabricated (custom-made) versions.

What the buyer wants

• Supply ductile iron pipes and fabricated pipes to EN545 and EN598 standards • Supply ductile iron fittings (joints, bends, connections) to EN545 and EN598 standards • Operate under a framework agreement that allows Severn Trent Water to call off orders over an agreed period

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

This contract is for large-scale industrial pipe manufacture and supply; unless you are an established ductile iron foundry or pipe manufacturer with certified EN545/EN598 production facilities and the ability to supply hundreds of tonnes annually, you will not qualify.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
