PRO005020 - Continuous Water Quality Monitoring (CWQM)

United Utilities is required to implement a Continuous Water Quality Monitoring (CWQM) programme. The initiative supports compliance with the EA’s Section 82 guidance and other regulatory pressures while delivering real-time pollution insights, used to support wider business decision making. Section 82 mandates the continuous monitoring of water quality upstream and downstream of storm overflows and wastewater treatment assets, with the objective of improving transparency, compliance, and environmental outcomes. The CWQM programme is a major transformation initiative requiring significant investment in technology, installation capability, ecological and hydrological planning, and real-time data assurance. UU requires a Supplier capable of delivering a robust monitoring solution that integrates with UU’s existing telemetry, data platforms, operational processes, and regulatory reporting frameworks, ensuring accurate monitoring and near-real-time data availability.
