Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency commissioned works at Bilborough Borehole in Yorkshire and the Humber. The scope covers upgrading monitoring equipment, improving the borehole shaft cover and installing steps. This is a works requirement associated with river regulation and flood-control infrastructure, classified under CPV 45246000. The delivery address is in the LS11 9AT area of Leeds. The requirement is therefore relevant to contractors able to carry out borehole or water-infrastructure refurbishment, structural improvement and associated installation works. It combines civil engineering activity with specialist monitoring-equipment work, so firms may need capability across both site construction and equipment upgrade tasks. The buyer is the Environment Agency, based in Leeds.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 17 July 2026 to Cheetham Hill Construction Ltd for £50,421 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement was for works and the tender had a submission deadline of 17 July 2026 at 12:00. The requirement was treated as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active, and the awarded scope covers the monitoring-equipment upgrade, shaft-cover improvement and step installation at Bilborough Borehole.

For a supplier assessing future work from the Environment Agency, this award demonstrates demand for relatively contained borehole refurbishment combining civil works and monitoring infrastructure. A credible competitor would need practical experience working on water-management or flood-control assets, with the capability to plan and deliver site-based installation, structural improvements and access or safety works. It would also need to coordinate monitoring-equipment upgrades with physical refurbishment, manage work safely around an operational or specialist site, and provide reliable workmanship across the full package. The buyer’s classification of the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs indicates that future competitors should be prepared to demonstrate substantial organisational capacity, relevant experience and the resources to manage the complete requirement rather than only a narrow specialist element.
