The contract will see suppliers deliver Ceramic Membrane plants awarded for 2025 until March 2033, with the option to extend for a further six-twelve month period.

Scottish Water is seeking a range of supplier capabilities in order to deliver the programme, including MEICA, Civil Construction and Ceramic Membrane Product Suppliers

Appointed suppliers will be required to have capabilities in all areas or demonstrate ‘how they will acquire these skill sets.’

It is also expected that the supplier can act as both Principal Contractor and Principal Designer in the delivery of the programme.

Scope

  • Phase 1: construction, commissioning and hand-over of Turriff Ceramic Membrane Water Treatment Works.
  • Phase 2 onwards: (Subject to successful bidding in Scottish Waters SR27 Supply Chain Procurement) the framework’s design, delivery and commercial commitments would then transfer into the SR27 supply chain.

If Southern Water chooses to deliver phase 2 through the supply chain for SR27, the successful tenderer may be required to transpose the requirements and commitments of the framework into an NEC Alliance agreement as part of the SR27 supply chain.

The successful contractor(s) will have to comply with the mandatory use of Scottish Water’s specialist frameworks including Infrastructure, Kits, Civils Materials and Hires.

Contractors can apply by 18 December, for more information click here.
