Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency has completed the procurement process for the NW CDF Preston and South Ribble FRMS Phase 3/4 Construction Design Support, classified under Flood-prevention works. This selective procurement was conducted through a framework agreement call-off and was in the award stage as of 25th June 2026. The contract, valued at £171,903 GBP, is set in the North West of the United Kingdom, commencing on 23rd June 2026 and concluding on 30th April 2028. The tender involved works and targeted small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), although it was not specially suited for voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE).

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in construction design support related to flood-prevention. SMEs are particularly well-placed to benefit from this contract due to its tailored suitability for smaller scale businesses. Jacobs UK Ltd, an SME, was awarded the contract, underscoring the opportunities available for similar enterprises to engage in substantial public projects within infrastructure improvement in critical regions such as the North West of England.
