Tier 1 Delivery Partners (TDP) Water Infrastructure for Capital Investment Programme.

Descriptions

Scottish Water is seeking to appoint a number of Tier 1 Water Infrastructure Delivery Partners to support in the delivery of its Quality and Standards IV (Q&SIV) Capital Investment Programme for the regulatory period 2015 to 2021. To achieve the required efficiency it will be necessary to realise the optimum balance between self delivery and wider supply chain delivery. It is anticipated that the Tier 1 Delivery Partners will not sub-contract work other than to Scottish Water Tier 2 framework contractors. Applicants should therefore have the in-house resources to self deliver the work allocated to them.It is anticipated that delivery support will mainly be required within the Central Belt and the North East. It will be a key requirement for the Tier 1 Delivery Partners to be able to provide self-delivery within these areas. Although prices will be sought for work across Scotland the commercial evaluation will be based on work in these two areas.Subject to satisfactory reviews during the regulatory period the framework may then be extended at the sole discretion of Scottish Water into the next regulatory period.There is no predetermined estimate of the value of work that will be undertaken by the Tier 1 Delivery Partners. It is anticipated that the work allocated under the framework will be dependent on the delivery capacity and capabilities of the appointed Delivery Partners.For pre-qualification purposes applicants will be expected to be of sufficient an economic standing and have the in-house resources to self deliver an annual workload of circa GBP 2m.
