Water procurement
Save up to 25% off your water bills. It’s time to take advantage of the open water market.
Businesses can gain real benefits by engaging in the water market, but so far few eligible businesses have done so.
Finding the best option for your business can be daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. We can help ensure you’re taking the right approach. There are two ways you can engage with the open water market:
Securing a retail supply contract
Many businesses deal with multiple water suppliers. This means having to manage multiple retailers, resulting in extra paperwork, confusion and ultimately, unnecessary cost.
We can help you procure a single water retailer for all your sites. Our service clarifies your water charges, provides an objective comparison of water retailers and streamlines your water contracts to minimise costs and administration.
Becoming a self-supplier
Eligible businesses in England and Scotland can obtain a self-supply licence allowing them to purchase their water and wastewater direct from the wholesaler.
Setting up as a self-supplier can bring unique benefits to your business. Obtaining a self-supply licence eradicates the need for a retailer and provides you with full control of all customer-facing activities, such as meter readings, query resolution and billing.
At Inspired, our water team can help you deliver the best water management strategy for your organisation. Our five-step approach provides an end-to-end solution, which can be tailored to your requirements, also covering Audit, Bill Validation, Monitoring & Reporting and Leak Detection & Conservation.
