Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency, with its office located in London, UK, led the procurement process for the project titled "RDE890 - Options appraisal for long term landfill monitoring". This contract, specifically classified under "Research and development consultancy services" in the CPV scheme, involved investigating the presence of PFAS and POPs in leachate and groundwater at landfill sites. The procurement method employed was selective, announced as a call-off from a framework agreement, with a value of £43,958. Initiated on 8th September 2025, and published on 3rd October 2025, the tender stage has reached the award phase with Jacobs UK Ltd being the successful supplier, starting from 13th October 2025 until 13th March 2026. The scope of delivery includes regions such as British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a growth opportunity for businesses specialising in environmental consultancy, particularly those with expertise in research and development services and a focus on monitoring environmental pollutants. Although the procurement was non-inclusive of SMEs and VCSEs, larger consultancy firms with a proven track record in handling complex environmental assessments are positioned well to compete for similar future contracts. The framework agreement procurement method suggests potential future opportunities for firms within established frameworks, as these arrangements often facilitate streamlined awarding for similar projects moving forward.
