Description
Procurement Process:
To express an interest in participating in the tender, please contact Ross Bateman (ross.bateman@yorkshirewater.co.uk) through email by 17:00 (GMT) on 30th January 2024.
Once a bidder expresses an interest, the Invitation to Qualify (ITQ) document pack will be shared with them through Ariba. This will include the ITQ document that must be completed by all bidders and submitted on Ariba by 30th January 2024 at 5:00pm. All clarifications should be submitted on Ariba and can also be emailed to Ross Bateman (ross.bateman@yorkshirewater.co.uk) by 17:00 (GMT) on 23rd January 2024.
If the details of the main point of contact on your Ariba account are incorrect, or you are not registered on Ariba, please send the name of the main point of contact for the tender and the email address in order to register for Ariba access and participate in this tender.
Yorkshire Water Services (YWS) will periodically consolidate clarifications that would be relevant to everyone and share the response to these with all bidders anonymously.
Following an assessment of responses received for the ITQ, successful suppliers will be invited to participate in the ITT. This is planned for January but is subject to change based on YWS discretion.
