Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process managed by the Environment Agency focuses on flood-prevention works under the title "PFR Lot 2 Culmington" in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The contract, with a value of £293,000, follows a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. This procurement reached the award stage on 1st June 2026, with the contract period running from 17th October 2025 to 31st March 2026. The relevant deadlines included an end to the tender period on 15th October 2025. The Environment Agency, located at Aqua House, Birmingham, is the buying organisation, with the role of buyer while Whitehouse Construction Co Ltd serves as the supplier. The contract notice was published on the same day as the award.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the construction industry, particularly those specialising in flood-prevention infrastructure. Although not specifically targeting SMEs or VCSEs, larger construction firms with experience in public infrastructure projects are well-suited to benefit from such opportunities. The selective procurement process through a framework agreement indicates potential chances for firms already part of or looking to join such frameworks, allowing for the potential for long-term business growth and relationships with governmental agencies such as the Environment Agency.
