Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency procured flood-prevention works for Mill Dam Dyke, classified under CPV 45246400. The requirement is categorised as works and concerns physical measures to reduce or prevent flooding at the dyke. Delivery was associated with Birmingham, including the B3 1AQ area, and the East Midlands. The buyer was the Environment Agency, whose operational address is in Birmingham. The project is relevant to civil engineering contractors, flood-risk management specialists and firms experienced in constructing, repairing or improving flood defence assets. It is a site-based infrastructure requirement rather than a consultancy, supply-only or community service opportunity. The named supplier was Forkers Ltd, a construction company based in West Bromwich.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, with tenders due by 4 March 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract was awarded to Forkers Ltd on 4 March 2026 for £51,301.59 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 5 March 2026 to 31 March 2026. The award is active, and the tender status is complete. The published procurement value and awarded value are the same. The contracting process records one requirement and one awarded supplier. The award followed the framework call-off route; the available procurement information does not set out a separate quality, price or other evaluation weighting.

For a supplier that did not win this requirement, the procurement indicates demand from the Environment Agency for short-duration, targeted flood-prevention works delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical civil engineering capability, experience working on flood defences or water-management assets, and the capacity to mobilise quickly for a defined site programme. Evidence of safe, compliant construction delivery, competent site management and effective coordination with an environmental public body would strengthen its position. The requirement was marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so the relevant competitive profile is an established specialist contractor with framework access, appropriate resources and a track record of completing flood-risk infrastructure works.
