Water Procurement

Are you getting the best deal for your water?

Most businesses review their water contract when it comes up for renewal.

The problem is that renewing the same arrangement is not the same as testing whether it is still the right deal.

Your water costs can be affected by tariffs, contract terms, consumption, wastewater charges, the number of sites you operate and changes in how your business uses its premises.

At BSUK, we review your current position and, where appropriate, test the available market to establish whether a better commercial option exists.

Don’t just renew because that’s what you’ve always done

Your business may have changed since your current water arrangement was put in place.

You may have:

Added or closed sites
Taken on additional premises
Changed operating hours
Increased or reduced water consumption
Changed how your facilities are used
Expanded or reduced your operation
Never properly tested the market

Your current arrangement may still be right for your business. But unless you test it, you don’t know.

It’s about more than finding a cheaper rate

A lower headline price doesn’t automatically mean a better deal.

We look at the whole commercial position, including:

Current tariffs and charges
Water and wastewater costs
Contract terms and renewal arrangements
Consumption and future requirements
Multiple sites and meters
Available procurement options
Overall contract value

The aim is simple: Understand what you have, establish what is available and give you a clear basis for deciding what to do next.

We do the legwork. You make the decision.

You don’t need to spend time contacting suppliers, comparing contracts or trying to work out whether the options you’re being offered are competitive.

We review your current position, assess the market where appropriate and present the available options clearly.

If your existing arrangement is competitive and appropriate, we’ll tell you.

If there is a better option available, you’ll know what it is and what changing would mean before you make a decision.

You stay in control.

Could your water contract be costing you more than it needs to?

If you haven’t tested your water procurement recently, you may not know what alternatives are available.

What does a water procurement review involve?

We start by understanding your current arrangement rather than simply asking suppliers for a new price.

We look at what you currently pay, how your water is supplied, how your business operates and whether anything has changed since the contract was originally agreed.

For businesses with multiple sites, we can also look at the wider portfolio rather than treating every account in isolation.

What are we looking for?

The review can consider:

Current tariffs and charging structure
Water and wastewater costs
Contract length and renewal dates
Existing pricing and terms
Consumption and site requirements
Multiple sites, accounts and meters
Available market options
Expected future requirements

This helps ensure that any procurement decision is based on the overall commercial position, rather than simply the cheapest headline rate.

What if your current supplier is already competitive?

That’s fine.

Our role is not to recommend changing supplier simply because we can.

If your existing arrangement remains competitive and meets your requirements, you’ll have greater confidence in staying where you are.

If the market shows that another option could provide a better commercial outcome, we’ll explain the difference so you can decide whether to proceed.

What does it cost?

There is no upfront cost to review your water procurement requirements.

If procurement proceeds, we’ll explain clearly how any fees or commissions work before you commit to anything.

What do you need to provide?

We will normally need recent water and wastewater bills, details of your current contract and some basic information about your sites and requirements.

We do the legwork. You get a clear view of your options.

Is it time to test your water contract?

If you can’t remember the last time your water procurement was properly reviewed, now could be a good time to find out what’s available.
