Northumbrian Water Group (NWG) is approaching the first breakpoint in the existing Strategic Commercial Partner (FA07-02B) framework.
The framework has been in place since 1st April 2023, for an initial period of 4 years.
NWG are reviewing options going forwards from 1st April 2027.
As part of the framework review, NWG are seeking to gauge market interest from external suppliers.
NWG are interested in understanding wider market capacity and capability to provide commercial, contract management and project support services across Northumbrian Water and Essex & Suffolk Water.
The services are required to support AMP8 and AMP9 delivery, including the Living Water Enterprise, Integrated Delivery Services and Major Projects.
The scope may include (but not limited to) NEC contract management, cost and value management, commercial assurance, risk management, programme support, specialist advisory support and cost intelligence support.
Suppliers are expected to offer flexible, scalable resourcing solutions that can support both strategic and project-level delivery to meet programme demands across both regions.
NWG welcomes interest from organisations of all sizes, including suppliers who may not currently operate within the water sector or who do not have large established delivery teams.
NWG are keen to hear from organisations that can demonstrate strong commercial, project delivery or infrastructure experience, innovative approaches to resource mobilisation, and the capability to integrate effectively within collaborative delivery environments.
Sector-specific experience is not considered essential where suppliers can evidence transferable skills, capability and a commitment to understanding our operating environment.
This market engagement exercise is intended to assess market appetite, capability and capacity ahead of a potential procurement.
Feedback will help shape the future scope, delivery model and procurement strategy, and no commitment is being made to proceed with a formal tender at this stage.
