The work of British Water, and the services to members are delivered through three “Forums”.
UK FORUM
The role of the UK Forum is to provide focus for British Water activities in the UK market place. The Forum has two basic parts:
• The Municipal Market Group • Business Best Practice Panel

Technical Forum Focus Groups
The Municipal Market Group holds two main meetings each year. The main meetings address issues which are relevant to the supply chain, such as the client’s capital programmes, spend patterns, workload, skills requirement, and innovation. The regulators (Ofwat and Environment Agency) usually attend these meetings, which invariably include a visit to a member’s facilities or to a water industry project.
The success of the Municipal Market Group is built on its regular liaison meetings with major players in the sector. Delegations of between 10 and 12 members represent the Group at meetings with the 10 water service companies in England and Wales, Scottish Water and Northern Ireland Water, where discussions are held with the procurement and engineering staff on a range of relevant topics.
There are also regular liaison meetings with the economic and environmental regulators, both in England and Wales, and in Scotland.
The Municipal Market Group conducts a client performance survey on a yearly basis. The survey involves members ranking clients’ performance on a number of issues such as communication, contractual approach, procurement practices and business practices such as health and safety. The outputs of the survey are used to rank each water company, and the results are published on the British Water website.
