Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency procured monthly landfill gas monitoring and reporting at Blaydon Quarry landfill in Gateshead, North East England. The service covers 92 landfill gas boreholes and is required to check that gases from the site are not causing environmental pollution or harm to human health. This is an environmental monitoring and waste consultancy service, classified under CPV 71800000. The work involves recurring field monitoring and the preparation of reports for regulatory purposes. The buying organisation is the Environment Agency, acting for the requirement at the Blaydon site. The service is relevant to environmental consultancies, landfill operators and specialist monitoring providers with the technical ability to assess landfill gas and produce reliable compliance reports for an Environment Agency-regulated site.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective call-off from the ESPO Consultancy Services Framework, 664-25, Lot 8(h). The tender deadline was 12 March 2026 at 12:00 UTC, and the award date was 29 July 2026. AtkinsRéalis PPS Limited was awarded the contract for £63,232.80. The contract period runs from 3 August 2026 to 31 August 2027. The requirement was evaluated through the framework call-off route rather than an open tender, and the procurement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award covers the full monthly monitoring and reporting service for the 92 boreholes at Blaydon Quarry. No separate lots or additional awarded suppliers are identified.

This award shows sustained public-sector demand for specialist landfill gas compliance services at a regulated landfill site. A credible future competitor would need to organise dependable monthly monitoring across a large borehole network, interpret landfill gas results and produce clear, accurate reports that support Environment Agency requirements. Relevant capability includes environmental consultancy, landfill gas assessment, pollution-risk monitoring, field data collection and regulatory reporting. Suppliers would also need the operational capacity to attend the Gateshead site repeatedly, maintain consistent records and manage work where public health and environmental protection are central outcomes. The awarded supplier is a large organisation, and the procurement was not marked as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. Experience delivering comparable landfill monitoring for public or regulated clients would therefore strengthen a competitor’s position.
