Sets up a framework (suppliers apply to join)

In plain English

Severn Trent Water is setting up a pre-approved list of suppliers, called a framework agreement, to provide Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor (MABR) systems, which are used to treat wastewater, along with related services. The framework will support about 11 treatment sites in its region, though that number is indicative only, and it is expected to run for an initial four years with options to extend. The estimated value is £44.4 million, and no guaranteed work or volume is offered.

What the buyer wants

• Design support for MABR systems at wastewater treatment sites • Manufacture and supply of MABR solutions • Associated services linked to the MABR systems, as called off under the framework

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The £44.4 million estimated value, the multi-supplier framework structure and the specialist nature of MABR design and manufacture would most likely rule out most small businesses, although the notice does not state specific qualifications, turnover thresholds or certifications.

Always check the tender documents.

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.

Where to apply

The notice doesn't name a website for bids. Ask the buyer how to apply, using the contact on the official notice.
