What is being bought

Yorkshire Water is reviewing its existing Infrastructure Works programme that covers a broad range of water and wastewater infrastructure activities across Yorkshire Water's network. As part of this review, Yorkshire Water is undertaking early market engagement with suppliers to: · Understand supplier capability, capacity and areas of expertise; · Gauge interest in working with Yorkshire Water in the future; · Seek views on potential delivery and lotting models; · Understand preferences regarding commercial and incentive arrangements; · Identify opportunities for efficiencies, innovation and collaboration. The intended programme will run during AMP9 and AMP10 with an estimated annual spend of approximately £330 million. The works may range from complex strategic infrastructure projects to customer-focused distribution and network activities. Suppliers with relevant experience and capability are invited to express interest and participate in early market discussions. This notice does not constitute a call for competition, a commitment to procure, or a commitment to enter into any contractual arrangement. Information gathered through this engagement will be used solely to inform Yorkshire Water's procurement strategy and future sourcing decisions. lf.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 38. The category anchor is Water meters (38421100); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 386592 median · 14.2 average (150 of 659 with a bid count)3.9 average (171 of 659 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
