Prior Information Notice KRW Water Chain Task
In May 2024, Waterschap Vechtstromen plans to launch a European open procedure for the KRW Water Chain Task, aimed at reducing nitrogen and phosphorus levels at eight WWTPs. The contract will be divided into two lots: Lot 1 (Enschede, Hengelo, Goor & Oldenzaal) involving larger process optimization and sand filtration tasks; Lot 2 (Denekamp, Glanerbrug, Haaksbergen, Nijverdal) involving smaller optimizations and cloth filters. Each project will be executed integrally by a single contractor, with three bidders for Lot 1 and four for Lot 2, to provide opportunities for SMEs. The emphasis is on quality; award criteria will be identical for both lots. The procedure includes a preliminary design (VO) per location, followed by a construction team phase in which market parties review the final design (DO). The construction teams are scheduled to start in Q4 2024, with completion by 1 January 2028. The exact scope per location will only be determined at the time of award, but works are required at all eight locations.
