United Utilities Water Limited requires a goods framework for the supply and delivery of laboratory consumables used by Scientific Services and the wider business to support regulatory, operational and investigative water and wastewater testing. The procurement is divided into three Lots: Lot 1 – Chromatography & ICP Consumables This Lot covers chromatography, ICP and related analytical instrumentation consumables. Products may include chromatography columns, vials, caps, liners, tubing, fittings, ICP consumables, standards-related consumables and associated laboratory items. Products may be linked to validated methods, manufacturer platforms or instrument ecosystems where compatibility, specification and part number accuracy are important. Lot 2 – Chemicals B This Lot covers chemical products and associated laboratory chemicals. Products may include chemicals with specified grade, purity, concentration, formulation, pack size and unit of measure requirements. Suppliers may be required to provide supporting documentation such as Safety Data Sheets, Certificates of Analysis, Certificates of Conformity, product specifications and regulatory information where applicable. Lot 3 – Analytical Reagents & Test Kits This Lot covers analytical reagents, test kits and associated laboratory products. Products may include reagents, kits, method-specific consumables and related items where method suitability, product performance, sensitivity, range, detection limit, shelf life, storage condition, handling and disposal requirements may be relevant. Bidders may submit a Tender for one, more than one, or all Lots. Each Lot will be evaluated and awarded separately using the relevant Lot-specific Technical Questionnaire and Commercial Pricing Workbook. Bidders will be required to provide pricing, product information and supporting documentation for the Lot or Lots for which they are bidding. Where exact specification, manufacturer, part number, grade, purity, concentration, formulation, method, performance or compatibility requirements are stated, alternatives or substitutions are not permitted unless explicitly requested or approved by United Utilities. The appointed supplier(s) will be required to support reliable supply, appropriate stock availability, lead time management, batch or lot traceability, quality assurance, technical support, account management, issue resolution, supplier management and continuity of supply throughout the framework term.
