This procurement falls under the services category termed as "Services furnished by business, professional and specialist organisations" (CPV: 98110000). The procurement process utilised a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, valued at £75,000. The project encompasses a broad geographic scope including delivery addresses in the British Oversea Territories, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom, with key activities concluding between 8th and 12th September 2025. The contract award was made on 15th August 2025 to the supplier Jacobs, with the award being formally published on 12th September 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in providing specialized consultancy and review services within environmental and infrastructural projects. Companies with experience in such domains, particularly those accustomed to working with governmental bodies or under framework agreements, would find this type of procurement process favourable. The nature of the project requires professional expertise, likely suiting larger firms with substantial resources over SMEs or VCSEs, as indicated by the tender's suitability criteria. Engaging in such contracts not only offers financial benefits but also enhances a company's portfolio in handling prestigious and complex environmental schemes.
