Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency procured flood-prevention works for its 2026 culvert desilting programme. The requirement covers removing accumulated silt from culverts to maintain water flows and reduce flood risk. It is classified under CPV 45246400, flood-prevention works. Delivery is associated with Birmingham, including the Environment Agency’s Aqua House location in Birmingham, and the East Midlands in the United Kingdom. This is a civil engineering and water-management requirement rather than a supply-only contract or consultancy. Businesses suited to similar work would typically operate in culvert maintenance, watercourse management, drainage, flood-risk reduction or related infrastructure works, with the ability to deliver physical works across the stated geography for a public-sector flood-management body.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. Amalgamated Construction Ltd (AmcoGiffen) received the active award on 4 September 2026, valued at £1,522,068.59. The contract runs from 7 September 2026 to 31 December 2026. The underlying procurement had an estimated value of £414,956 and a tender submission deadline of 4 September 2026 at 12:00. The Environment Agency is the buyer. The award was made to a single supplier. The opportunity was categorised as works, and the contracting process required framework access, meaning participation was through the established framework route rather than an open tender to the wider market.

This award shows demand from the Environment Agency for specialist culvert desilting and flood-prevention delivery at substantial works-contract scale. A credible competitor for comparable requirements would need practical experience removing silt from culverts and related drainage or watercourse infrastructure, together with the plant, trained workforce and site-management capability to deliver physical works safely and efficiently. The geographic scope indicates a need to mobilise across Birmingham and the East Midlands, so regional coverage, logistics and responsive field operations would strengthen a supplier’s position. Businesses should also understand how to compete through framework call-offs, demonstrate reliable delivery against public-sector requirements and provide evidence of experience in flood-risk or civil engineering programmes.
