Summary of the contracting process

Liverpool City Council commissioned a design consultancy to prepare Section 19 flood investigation reports for four locations: Lower Lane, where two investigations were required, Sandringham Road, Duncombe Road North and New Hall Lane. The work concerns understanding and reporting on flooding incidents, with associated health and safety, plumbing, geological and geophysical consultancy expertise. It is a professional services requirement delivered in the North West of England. The council is the buyer and the selected supplier is Mott MacDonald Limited. The requirement is relevant to consultancies that investigate flooding, assess contributing ground or drainage conditions, and produce technically robust reports for a local authority following flood events.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Liverpool City Council selected Mott MacDonald Limited on 27 April 2026. The award value is £42,107.90 including the published currency of GBP. The awarded contract period runs from 13 July 2026 to 5 October 2026. The wider procurement had an estimated value of £99,000, with submissions due by 11 March 2026 at 17:00 UTC. It was run as a services procurement using a procedure recorded as “Other”. The contract covers the Section 19 flood investigation reports for Lower Lane, Sandringham Road, Duncombe Road North and New Hall Lane. The award is active; no lots or separate awards are identified.

This award shows Liverpool City Council’s demand for specialist flood investigation reporting across multiple urban locations. A credible future supplier would need to combine flood investigation and report-writing capability with practical understanding of drainage and plumbing systems, ground conditions, and geological or geophysical evidence. The work is suited to an established multidisciplinary consultancy able to coordinate site investigation, interpret technical findings and present clear conclusions for a council. The selected supplier is a large organisation, indicating that capacity to manage several investigations and deliver a consistent set of reports is commercially relevant. Firms building a comparable evidence base should demonstrate reliable local-authority delivery, sound health and safety practice, and the ability to cover the North West.
