Summary of the contracting process

Natural England recently concluded a procurement process titled "Holton Heath Contaminated Land Risk Assessment" under the research consultancy services category. This project focuses on the contaminated land assessment of an ex-MOD waste disposal site located in the South West of the United Kingdom. The open procedure (below threshold) tender process had a submission deadline of 25th October 2024, with the contract period running from 18th November 2024 to 28th February 2025. The awarded contract, valued at £31,357, was given to AECOM LIMITED, a large-scale supplier. Key points of contact were Julie Merrett and Tez Otter from Natural England, with arranged site visits taking place on specified dates in October 2024.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses within the environmental consultancy sector, especially those specialising in contaminated land risk assessments. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to compete, as the procurement process was designed to be inclusive of SMEs. Companies with expertise in handling former military disposal sites and those looking to expand their portfolio in the South West region would find this project particularly beneficial. The potential for future collaborations with Natural England as a contracting authority could further aid business growth and establish long-term partnerships in environmental risk management services.
