Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council commissioned community engagement through the National Flood Forum Partnership for Nottingham City. The requirement is a service focused on community engagement; the procurement also carries a construction-work classification (CPV 45000000), although the description does not detail construction activity. Delivery is in Nottingham, England. The National Flood Forum was selected to provide the service. This is relevant to organisations delivering community engagement for flood-related or similar community partnership work in Nottingham, rather than suppliers focused solely on physical construction.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to The National Flood Forum following an open procedure, described as a competitive quotation. The award date was 10 October 2025. The awarded value is £50,000. The contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 October 2027. The original tender deadline was 22 September 2025 at noon. The opportunity was suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The published evaluation basis and any detailed eligibility requirements are not set out in the available process information.

This award shows that Nottingham City Council buys community engagement services through a competitively quoted, open procurement and that a specialist voluntary-sector supplier can win the work. Organisations considering comparable future requirements should be able to demonstrate practical capability in engaging communities, delivering partnership-based activity and working within Nottingham. SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable, so the requirement was not restricted to large contractors. The stated construction classification does not establish a need for construction delivery; the described service is community engagement. Suppliers with demonstrable experience in this kind of engagement and the capacity to deliver a sustained service would be better placed to compete when this specific council requirement next arises. The published details do not identify mandatory accreditations or technical thresholds.
