National water retailer, Wave, has secured a significant new water framework with The Energy Consortium (TEC) for the next four years.
This is another important win for Wave, securing access to university and museum customers nationally, with a combined annual revenue of £25m, and growing. Wave is expected to retain 100% of current TEC customers thanks to its commitment to quality, water efficiency and social value.
The new framework will build upon an already strong and trust based, four-year relationship with TEC, formed through their existing framework. During this time, TEC has collaborated at both a framework and customer level to innovate and provide the best outcomes for member organisations.
Most recently, Wave’s Legionella Risk Management (LRM) trial has offered TEC members an exciting opportunity to be part of the first cohort of participants to test new sensors which could reduce excess water used as part of LRM practices in colleges and universities across the country.
Both organisations are deeply committed to environmental sustainability and community engagement, with TEC and its member organisations volunteering at several of Wave’s recent social value initiatives, including maintenance projects delivered at Washington Wildlife Trust, Worcester & Birmingham Canal and Liverpool Festival Gardens.
Tony March, Director of Public Sector and Industrial Customers at Wave, said: “TEC, its members, associates and Wave are approaching nearly four years of working closely to deliver a water service that is second to none. Wave is delighted to have secured the new TEC framework, which will provide a great platform to build on the fantastic work which is in progress. Together, we’ll work to drive efficiencies, reduce water consumption, improve compliance and continue all our journeys to net zero.
“Thank you to TEC, its members and associates for this amazing opportunity and placing your trust in Wave.”
Steve Creighton, Head of Members at The Energy Consortium, said: “This framework enhances the service that TEC has been continuously improving over the last four years and will give our members access to a water partner and service that delivers real benefit and value. Wave has consistently demonstrated exceptional service to our members and possesses a strong understanding of the challenges in our sector.
“Together, TEC and Wave are committed to driving change and enhancing water efficiency by reducing consumption and waste, aligning with the core needs of our industry for the benefit of all. And we are delighted to have Wave at our upcoming conference in November to promote this message to our member organisations.”
