II.2.4) Description of the procurement

Scottish Water is preparing to launch a renewed Civil Materials Framework to support its capital and <br/>operational programmes across Scotland.

Suppliers will be expected to:<br/>Provide detailed carbon data to support Scottish Water’s sustainability and net-zero objectives.<br/>Actively engage with Scottish Water to bring low carbon material options to market.<br/>Align with Scottish Water’s commitment to the Advanced Market Commitment (AMC), supporting the adoption of low carbon concrete across Scotland.<br/><br/>Suppliers will be invited to tender under the following sourcing model:<br/>Regional Source – Supply divided into North (incl. islands), East, South, and West (incl. <br/>islands) regions, with multiple suppliers potentially appointed per region.<br/>A coded grid map of Scotland will be issued with the tender to allow suppliers to price for areas where <br/>they have plants or quarries. Market leaders may choose to bid across multiple sourcing options.<br/><br/>This framework is designed to provide a robust, flexible, and cost-effective supply chain for civil <br/>materials, enabling Scottish Water to deliver planned and reactive works efficiently across its <br/>operational footprint.<br/><br/>Where possible, 365-day material access will be expected, with suppliers offering priority access to <br/>Scottish Water during periods of reduced operational capacity (e.g. festive periods or quarry <br/>shutdowns).<br/><br/>New Contract Objectives – Drive LCC, Carbon reporting, holiday access, priority opportunities, <br/>bagged materials, increased material list to support capital and reinstatement projects.
