Summary of the contracting process

Milton Keynes Council commissioned contaminated land remediation consultancy services for the New Bradwell Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) in the South East of England. The work covers additional ground investigations and the development of a remediation strategy for contaminated land. It is divided into two linked tranches: further characterisation, assessment and remediation strategy development; and support with procuring the remediation contractor for the main works, including preparing an earthworks specification. The procurement is primarily geological and geophysical consultancy, with services relating to contaminated soil. The requirement is for professional services supporting the investigation, assessment and planned remediation of the site, rather than the physical remediation works themselves.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Milton Keynes Council used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. WSP UK Limited was awarded the contract on 9 July 2026 for GBP 61,819.04. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 November 2026. The tender submission deadline was 19 June 2026. The planned work was scheduled across July to September for further characterisation and remediation strategy development, and August to October for remediation contractor procurement support. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award is active.

For suppliers monitoring Milton Keynes Council’s future contaminated land requirements, this award demonstrates demand for specialist consultancy covering site investigation, contaminated soil assessment and remediation planning at an HWRC. A credible competitor would need to combine geological and geophysical investigation skills with practical experience of characterising contamination, assessing remediation options and producing a deliverable remediation strategy. It would also need to support the transition from investigation to construction procurement by preparing clear earthworks specifications and helping procure the contractor for the main remediation works. The award to WSP UK Limited shows that the requirement can be delivered by an SME-scale consultancy. Firms able to provide both technical land remediation advice and procurement support would be well aligned to this buyer’s requirement.
