Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the project titled "WMD - CDF Lot 1 -Lower Witham Grand Sluice - OBC-FBC Detailed Design" has been completed by the Environment Agency. This contract involves civil engineering consultancy services, as classified under the CPV code 71311000. Delivery locations covered in this procurement include the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, and more diverse regions globally. The process followed a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender stage completed on 17th December 2025, and the contract period is set from 18th February 2026 until 13th December 2027. The total contract value amounts to £770,292.07. The award for this tender has been conferred on Ove Arup & Partners Limited, with the award status being active as of 7th January 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for companies specialising in civil engineering consultancy services. It is ideally suited for larger consulting firms due to the substantial contract value and the technical expertise required, as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) might find the scale challenging. Given that the procurement was carried out selectively via a framework agreement, it points to potential future collaboration for companies that can establish a foothold in the framework. Companies with a global reach and capabilities to operate in extensive geographical areas, such as those detailed in the delivery addresses, would be well-positioned for similar future procurements initiated by the Environment Agency or related organisations.
