PRO005185-Works-Framework-Rainwater Solutions

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
