Thames Water disputed its PR24 final determination and is under Ofwat's Turnaround Oversight Regime (TOR). Despite financial challenges, AMP8 investment of £19.8bn is the largest in company history. Capital delivery frameworks continue to be awarded.
Water company procurement is spread across multiple portals and notification systems. Knowing exactly where to look — and when — is the difference between catching a framework in time and missing the window.
Water Industry Hub monitors all water company procurement channels and delivers relevant notices directly to your inbox — so you never have to check multiple portals manually.
Water company frameworks operate on a tier structure. Tier 1 contractors hold a direct contractual relationship with Thames Water. Tier 2 and Tier 3 specialists subcontract through Tier 1 framework holders. If you cannot win a Tier 1 position, approach the Tier 1 framework holders above to discuss Tier 2 opportunities — framework holders actively need to build specialist supply chains.
Water Industry Hub offers procurement support from someone who spent 18 years inside a major water company — across distribution, operations, capital delivery and group transformation. Every bid review is supported by a team of water sector experts. Initial conversation free of charge.
Water Industry Hub monitors Find a Tender and the wider sector for every Thames Water contract award, live tender and pipeline notice — with named supplier details, supply chain analysis and framework watch list.
