Details

United Utilities' (UU) Rainwater Management Strategy is founded on Sustainable Drainage principles, which prioritise the capture, reuse and management of rainwater as close as possible to where it falls. The strategy promotes the use of surface conveyance, infiltration, disconnection and attenuation to slow the movement of water through the catchment and reduce pressure on the wastewater network. We are looking to appoint 5 partners to support the delivery of Rainwater Solutions over the next 12 to 18 months. This framework forms an interim procurement solution to support with immediate AMP8 delivery requirements whilst United Utilities develops its longer-term Rainwater Management delivery model. The framework will provide access to suppliers capable of undertaking both Design & Build and Build Only delivery of Rainwater Management solutions and will generate valuable insight into supplier capability, capacity, performance and delivery approaches to inform future procurement arrangements supporting the wider AMP8 and AMP9 programme. The Rainwater Solutions Framework will support a combination of Design & Build and Build Only commissions, with the procurement delivery route determined on a scheme-by-scheme basis depending on programme requirements, complexity and design maturity

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this water & environment opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
