Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency commissioned flood and river-control construction works under the YNE-AOMR Lot 1 North East Area Asset Reconnaissance Programme. The package covers four North East sites: Willows Embankment, Loftus Walls, Trafford Hill Culvert and Bellingham Embankments. The requirement is classified as river regulation and flood control works and sits within the works category. It concerns asset reconnaissance associated with these flood-risk management structures, including embankments, walls and a culvert. Delivery is in the North East of England. This is a single area package rather than a broad national requirement, so it is most relevant to contractors with established capability in flood defence, water infrastructure and civil engineering works in the region.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. Cheetham Hill Construction Ltd was selected by the Environment Agency on 26 April 2026. The awarded value is £946,498.69 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 1 May 2026 to 30 March 2027. The tender submission deadline was 19 February 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The published information identifies this as one North East area package, with an overall estimated value matching the award value. The award is active, and the tender status is complete. The opportunity was assessed through the framework call-off process rather than an open competition.

For a supplier that did not win, this award demonstrates a defined Environment Agency requirement for regional flood-defence asset work delivered across several structure types and locations. A credible future competitor would need practical experience in river regulation and flood-control construction, including work on embankments, walls and culverts, together with the resources to manage multiple North East sites within one programme. The requirement is marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, indicating that future competitors should be established works contractors with sufficient organisational capacity for a substantial area package. Firms able to demonstrate relevant civil engineering delivery, coordinated site operations and understanding of flood-risk assets would be better placed when comparable work returns to the market.
