Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, titled "Nitrogen and Phosphorous Mitigation Agreement," was initiated by Norfolk Environmental Credits Limited, a body governed by public law situated in Norwich, UK. This contract was focused on the environmental management sector, involving the provision of nutrient mitigation credits to offset nutrient pollution from new residential developments. The process progressed to the Award stage, with the contract being signed on 5th June 2025.

The procurement method was an open procedure under CELEX legal basis 32014L0024, and the awards were made to Our Rivers (Norfolk) Limited and Norfolk Rivers Consortium Limited.

This tender represents an attractive business opportunity, particularly for SMEs specialising in environmental management and infrastructure upgrades, as it involves the installation of high-efficiency nutrient removal package treatment plants. With a substantial contract value totalling £22,000,000, and specific lots focusing on long-term nutrient mitigation, businesses in the environmental services sector stand to gain significantly. Companies with expertise in septic tank upgrades, nutrient management, and sustainable environmental solutions are well-poised to compete, given the criteria of quality and cost that were central to the award decisions. The involvement of electronic submissions and the emphasis on registered trade professionals underscore the technical proficiency required for effective participation in such tenders.
