See the water work before it reaches the market.

The UK Water Tender Radar reads every notice published on Find a Tender and pulls out the water and waste water work. It does one thing nobody else bothers to do: it links each early notice to the tender it became, so you can see the procurements that have been signalled and have not yet gone out. Across three years that gap runs at a median of 87 days. Free, no charge, no trial.

What is in it

Three years of UK water and waste water procurement, screened from every notice on Find a Tender and refreshed every morning.

Forward pipeline

Work that has been signalled but not tendered

Every procurement where a buyer has published a pipeline, planned procurement or market engagement notice and no tender has followed. Each row carries an expected window based on how long that client normally takes, which ranges from about 20 days at Thames Water to about 200 at Scottish Water.

Live tenders

Everything open right now

Water tenders whose deadline has not passed, soonest first, with the days remaining and a link to the notice.

Who is winning

Suppliers and clients

League tables of who wins water awards and framework positions, and which clients put the most work to market. Filter by clean water, waste water, flood and drainage, or by client.

How it is put together

Find a Tender is the UK government notice service. Its data is published under the Open Government Licence. Every notice is screened against water CPV codes, the list of UK water undertakers and regulators, and the language of the scope. Notices are sorted into water core and wider multi sector frameworks, because a general construction framework that happens to carry one water CPV is not water work. Framework ceiling values are never attributed to individual suppliers, because the notice publishes one figure for the whole framework rather than a value per winner. Duplicate publications are collapsed. The method is deliberately conservative and you can read the source notice behind every row.
