Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the project titled "Project & Contract Central - AOMR Lot 3 Incident Response Direct Award- 2026-27 - EMD - GC" was conducted by DEFRA (Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs). This contract falls under the flood-prevention works industry category, with services being delivered primarily in the East Midlands, United Kingdom. The procurement was in the award stage as of 6th May 2026, following a tender period ending on 27th April 2026. The contract, valued at £50,000, was implemented over a brief period from 28th April to 29th April 2026. The procurement utilised a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, which streamlined the process by selecting suppliers already qualified within an established framework.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses involved in flood-prevention works, particularly those capable of responding quickly to incident demands. While this specific contract was already awarded to Ground Control Limited, similar opportunities arising from framework agreements can help businesses align their services to the needs of public agencies like DEFRA. Companies specialising in environmental management and capable of rapid deployment could find significant growth potential by engaging with such selective procurement methods, ensuring readiness to participate in similar future tenders.
