Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency procured post-final-business-case construction works for the Skinningrove project. The requirement is classified as flood-defence maintenance works, covering construction activity intended to support flood protection. The work is associated with Skinningrove and has delivery coverage within the United Kingdom. This is a works contract rather than a supply or consultancy opportunity. The named buyer is the Environment Agency, which is responsible for the procurement and the public service need. The requirement is relevant to contractors delivering flood-defence construction, maintenance and associated civil engineering works, particularly those with experience working for an environmental or public infrastructure client. The procurement title identifies the project as NEA - CDF - Skinningrove - Post-FBC Construction.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 11 August 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded to BAM Nuttall Ltd on 6 August 2026 for £7,155,986, and runs from 12 August 2026 to 6 October 2027. The published estimated procurement value was also £7,155,986. The award is active. The opportunity was designated as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The available evaluation information identifies a framework call-off route; the award record does not set out separate quality or price weightings. The process therefore demonstrates a completed, single-supplier award rather than an unallocated requirement.

This procurement is evidence of substantial Environment Agency demand for flood-defence construction and maintenance at Skinningrove. A credible future competitor would need to deliver complex civil engineering and flood-protection works, manage construction activity for a public infrastructure client, and operate at a scale appropriate to a major framework call-off. The buyer’s designation of the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises indicates that comparable work is aimed at larger, established contractors rather than small specialist firms bidding independently. Experience of framework-based public sector procurement would also be commercially relevant, since this requirement was awarded through a framework call-off. Suppliers studying the Environment Agency’s requirements should focus on demonstrable flood-defence delivery capability and the capacity to perform a sizeable, defined construction package.
