Suppliers & contractors

Severn Trent Water's investment programme is essential to the delivery of higher standards in the quality of water supplied, treatment of sewage and to make sure that the Company's asset base and infrastructure are maintained.

Approved consultants, contractors and engineering framework suppliers can access our Supplychain Website, (clicking on this link will take you outside the Severn Trent Water Website) for On-line Standard Documentation, News Items and Discussion Groups. Contact your Supplychain Website Company Administrators to gain access.

Severn Trent Water places great emphasis on the role of the supply chain to deliver its business needs.  As part of this strategy a primary objective is to select and work with suppliers in the delivery of real cost-effective solutions in conjunction with the operational side of the business.

We help to deliver effective supply chains that ensure Severn Trent Water can meet its commitments to customers on product and service quality.   For more information regarding our approach to purchasing and working with suppliers please click on this link to the Suppliers page.
