Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency procured routine maintenance works for water, land and biodiversity assets under Lot 3 of the EAN–AOMR requirement. The scope is described as miscellaneous repair and maintenance services, covering practical environmental maintenance across the East of England. Delivery is associated with Peterborough, postcode PE2 8YY, and the wider East of England. This is a works requirement rather than a supply-only or consultancy opportunity. The named requirement indicates that the work is focused on recurring maintenance of environmental assets and sites, including activities connected with water management, land management and biodiversity. Ground Control Limited was the selected supplier for this requirement, showing that the Environment Agency uses external contractors for this type of operational maintenance.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 26 August 2026 to Ground Control Limited. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract value is £126,120.99 including the stated GBP currency. The tender submission deadline was 19 August 2026 at 5:00pm. The awarded contract runs from 31 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The opportunity was treated as one lot, covering the stated water, land and biodiversity routine maintenance works. The procurement was assessed as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The published information identifies the award and supplier, but does not set out the detailed evaluation criteria or weighting.

This award is useful market evidence for contractors providing routine environmental maintenance to public bodies, particularly those able to work across water, land and biodiversity settings in the East of England. A credible competitor would need operational capacity for practical maintenance works, the workforce and equipment to cover multiple environmental asset types, and the ability to deliver reliably for the Environment Agency. Experience of working to public-sector requirements and operating through framework call-offs would be commercially relevant, as would the capacity to manage a defined maintenance programme rather than a one-off intervention. The requirement is marked as unsuitable for SMEs, indicating that future competitors should be able to demonstrate scale, resources and delivery resilience appropriate to an established framework contractor.
