Yorkshire Water has gone out to tender with an AMP8 contract for a Property Management Framework with an estimated total value of 21.6 million including VAT.

The Framework will be structured across multiple Lots, covering a range of works and services in the following seven Lots:

Lot 1. Estate infrastructure

Works are typically reactive and short duration, requiring suppliers to demonstrate efficient mobilisation, reliable delivery, and strong safety performance. The contractor will be appointed as and fulfil the duties of Principal Contractor (PC) under CDM 2015 Regulations.

Lot 2a. Complex Estate infrastructure (PD & PC Required)

Involves the delivery of higher risk civils and structural works, typically under a design and build model. This includes complex groundworks, drainage, structural interventions and demolition, with suppliers responsible for design, construction, and safety management, including fulfilling Principal Designer and/or Principal Contractor roles where required.

Lot 2b. Barns, Slurry Tanks & Septic Tanks

Design and build for Agricultural specific projects focused on the design, construction, repair and modification of barns, slurry stores and septic tank systems. Works are typically delivered in rural or agricultural environments and require suppliers to demonstrate appropriate technical expertise, environmental compliance, and safe delivery of higher risk works.

Lot 3. Interior & Exterior Renovation

Covers a range of multi‑trade building works, including internal and external repairs, maintenance and refurbishment. Works may take place in occupied/tenanted buildings, requiring suppliers to deliver high quality outcomes while ensuring minimal disruption and strong customer engagement.

Lot 5. Heritage Buildings

Covers specialist works to listed and heritage assets, requiring the use of traditional materials and conservation techniques. Suppliers must demonstrate experience in delivering works in line with heritage legislation and conservation principles, often in sensitive or occupied environments.

The Framework is intended to provide Yorkshire Water with access to a pool of qualified, competent suppliers capable of delivering works across a range of complexity, risk profiles and asset types. The Framework will operate as a multi‑supplier arrangement, with call‑offs awarded primarily through mini‑competition or in rare situations where a high risk has been identified, as a direct award. The Framework is being established as an open framework, with provision for periodic re‑opening and re‑competition.

Current estimated start and end contract dates are 17 August 2026 to 16 August 2030, with further possible extension options up to 16 August 2034. Estimated contract award decision date is 5 August 2026

Contracts under the Framework - Call Off Contracts - will be awarded primarily through mini‑competition. Call‑Off specific pricing may include:

• Fixed (lump sum) pricing
• Measured works based on Schedule of Rates
• Target cost or cost‑reimbursable arrangements
• Time‑charge basis for professional services

The applicable pricing mechanism will be determined at Call Off stage based on the scope, complexity, and risk profile of the requirement. The Framework Agreement does not guarantee any minimum volume or value of work.

The Framework will allow for the appointment of multiple suppliers per Lot and will operate as an open framework, with re‑opening to competition periodically. At each re‑opening, all suppliers (including existing Framework suppliers) will be required to reapply and will be evaluated in accordance with the criteria set out in the procurement documents, including the Invitation to Tender and Framework Agreement.
