As part of developing our strategy for how to deliver our services NPH are keen to engage with drainage companies that operate in the Northampton area and have the experience and capability to support this type of contract.
If you are interested in this opportunity please email [email protected] and provide contact details of the individual/s who should be kept informed of this process and any further opportunity for early market engagement with NPH.
Your email should include Company name and the name, email address and contact number for the most appropriate person for NPH to contact.

Published award criteria (2)

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
