Summary of the contracting process

The procurement covered flood-defence maintenance works for the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA). The requirement was titled “Mids - AOMR Lot 2 - AMCO - Sheepwash PSRA” and concerned work at Sheepwash PSRA, with delivery locations recorded in the West Midlands and London. The work falls within the construction and maintenance of flood-defence infrastructure, including maintaining structures that protect against flooding. DEFRA was the buying organisation. The requirement was arranged as a specific call-off under an existing framework rather than as a standalone open-market contract. It was therefore relevant primarily to contractors able to deliver civil engineering or infrastructure maintenance works under the applicable framework arrangements and within the stated UK locations.

This procurement has been awarded and completed as a tender process. DEFRA used a selective procedure through a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 7 September 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded to Amalgamated Construction Ltd (AmcoGiffen) on 22 November 2025 for £50,000. The contract period ran from 8 September 2026 to 9 September 2026. The procurement’s estimated value was also £50,000. The recorded award was active, and the tender status was complete. The published information identifies the requirement and delivery locations but does not set out separate lots, quantified evaluation weightings or additional eligibility requirements. This was a short-duration award for the Sheepwash PSRA flood-defence maintenance requirement.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement provides a clear indication of DEFRA’s demand for short, targeted flood-defence maintenance works delivered through framework call-offs. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable civil engineering and infrastructure-maintenance capability, with practical experience working on flood-protection assets and the capacity to mobilise for tightly defined works in the West Midlands or other stated delivery locations. The selected supplier was an established construction contractor, indicating that relevant technical delivery capability, operational capacity and experience with public-sector or framework-based work are important commercial strengths. Because the requirement was not identified as suitable for SMEs, smaller firms may need substantial delivery capacity, a strong framework position or a partnership with a larger contractor to compete effectively for similar work with DEFRA.
