In the context of the upcoming Call for Tenders launching in September 2025, the PCP WISE project is collecting market insights on innovative and commercial solutions through an RFI survey. Your input will help us design a procurement strategy that reflects real market capabilities and needs.

💡 There are no right or wrong answers — we’re exploring the market as is.
🔒 All responses will be anonymised and treated as confidential. No confidential details should be included in the survey itself.
📩 If you wish to share additional confidential information, please contact us at: pcpwise@hetwaterschapshuis.nl

Your feedback is essential. It will contribute directly to the development of future contract conditions and guide the next steps in our Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) process.

🗓️ Please note that responding to the RFI is a prerequisite if you wish to participate in a one-on-one meeting with the PCP WISE team. These one-on-one meetings can be scheduled until 11 July 2025 at the latest!

PCP WISE: Pre-Commercial Procurement - Water management Innovation from Space for European climate resilience

PCP WISE is an innovative project aimed at developing cutting-edge solutions (up to TRL 8) for water management and climate resilience across Europe using the Pre-Commercial Procurement instrument. By leveraging space technology and EO data, PCP-WISE seeks to address critical challenges related to floods, fires, and infrastructure impacts both in rural and urban areas. This collaborative effort brings together public buyers, research institutions, and industry experts to create and implement advanced climate services that will enhance Europe’s ability to adapt to and mitigate the effects of climate change.​ This project receives funding from the European Union's Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Programme, with a budget of €12 million earmarked for the R&D phases during the implementation of the PCP instrument. However, the European Union does not participate as a contracting authority in the procurement.

Het Waterschapshuis, as Lead Procurer, launches this Open Market Consultation (OMC) on behalf of the Buyers Group within the PCP WISE project. The goal of this OMC is to engage in meaningful dialogue with interested parties, in order to prepare for the upcoming Call for Tenders. The Call for Tenders is planned for September 2025.

For more information about PCP WISE, please visit our project's website.

A series of preliminary and informative webinars will be held in the form of a Webstival, aimed at raising awareness about the PCP WISE project. Please note that this Webstival is not an official part of the OMC. All webinars will be organized via the Enrich Global Community platform. If you are interested in attending these events, please register through this platform. Direct links to the specific webinar registration pages can be found in the overview below.

Any questions regarding the PCP WISE Open Market Consultation should be submitted through this e-Procurement platform. Please register to participate in this OMC.
