Summary of the contracting process

Natural England procured a farm advice service for Devon and Cornwall under the South West Catchment Sensitive Farming programme. The work involves one-to-one advice delivered on farms, supporting the farming industry in priority catchments to protect water and air quality. It also aims to help farm businesses improve resource efficiency, strengthen farm infrastructure and create lasting environmental benefits. The procurement is classified as environmental issues consultancy services and falls within the services category. Delivery is in the South West of England. The requirement is therefore relevant to organisations providing agricultural consultancy, environmental advice or farm-based improvement programmes, particularly those able to work directly with farmers on practical measures that deliver both business and environmental outcomes.

The procurement was completed and awarded to Promar International on 25 August 2026. The awarded contract value is £83,400, covering the period from 25 August 2026 to 27 November 2026. The tender submission deadline was 3 August 2026 at 12:15. Natural England used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open standalone competition. The procurement was evaluated as an environmental consultancy services requirement, with the detailed award basis set out through the procurement documents. It was recorded as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community and social enterprises. This outcome identifies Promar International as the selected supplier for the complete requirement.

For suppliers preparing for a future requirement of this kind, the award demonstrates demand for structured, farm-facing environmental consultancy from Natural England. A credible competitor would need experience of delivering one-to-one advice directly to farm businesses, with practical understanding of protecting water and air quality in catchment-sensitive areas. Useful capability would include translating environmental objectives into resource-efficiency measures, farm infrastructure improvements and actions that provide lasting environmental benefits without losing sight of farm-business needs. Suppliers should also be able to manage a defined programme across the South West and demonstrate delivery at the scale expected of a specialist framework call-off. The procurement’s stated suitability position indicates that the buyer looks towards established organisations rather than SMEs or VCSEs for this requirement.
