In plain English
United Utilities is looking for three specialist companies to install and manage approximately 15,000 battery-powered water level monitors across their wastewater network over three years (with an option to extend to eight years total). The work includes installing equipment, collecting data, maintaining monitors, and potentially deploying other sensors like flow and pressure monitors.
What the buyer wants
• Procure, install and commission battery-powered level monitoring hardware across a dispersed wastewater network • Manage data collection, transfer and reporting from deployed monitors • Provide ongoing maintenance, lifecycle support and incident management for installed equipment • Ensure all solutions integrate with United Utilities' existing telemetry systems and operational processes
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
This is a massive £25 million framework targeting large specialist contractors with proven experience in utility deployment programmes, established fleet operations, and the ability to coordinate 15,000+ installations across a multi-year period, which will disqualify nearly all small trades businesses and many mid-sized firms.
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.
