Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency procured construction of the Eastern Revetment Sloping Wall at Rye. This is a civil engineering and construction works requirement involving delivery of a sloping revetment wall, with the work located in Rye, East Sussex. The buying organisation is the Environment Agency, based in Worthing. The requirement is classified as engineering and construction works and falls within the wider public works category. It is a substantial infrastructure project rather than a routine maintenance or general building requirement, and is suited to contractors able to undertake specialist civil engineering construction in an operational environment. The procurement concerns one defined project for the Environment Agency, rather than a broader programme of unrelated works.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to VolkerStevin Infrastructure Ltd. The award date was 14 August 2026, for £4,059,139 including the stated currency of GBP. The original estimated value range was £4,059,139 to £6,100,000. It was run as a selective procedure and awarded as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 1 August 2026 at 12:00. The contract period runs from 3 August 2026 to 6 December 2027. The awarded supplier is recorded as a large organisation. The process was for works, with the tender marked complete and the award marked active.

This award indicates demand for substantial civil engineering and infrastructure construction capability from the Environment Agency in Rye. A credible future competitor would need experience delivering major revetment, retaining-wall or comparable engineered structures, together with the workforce, plant, project management and financial capacity to deliver a large construction project. The requirement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises, so suppliers should be able to operate at a scale comparable with an established infrastructure contractor. The route to market was a framework call-off, making relevant framework access and experience of bidding for call-off construction work important. Evidence of safely managing complex public-sector works and delivering to programme would strengthen a comparable supplier’s position.
