UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process described involves New Forest District Council, acting as the buyer, for the purpose of procuring services related to a Habitat Regulations Assessment (HRA). This initiative is aimed at assessing environmental impacts in relation to the Local Plan Review. The procurement process has been classified under the public authority - sub-central government category, with the main location being in the United Kingdom. The procurement was executed using a limited method due to the below-threshold nature of the competition, and involves an award stage. The contract was signed on 1st April 2025, with an active status, running from 4th September 2025 to 27th March 2026. The HRA falls within the environmental impact assessment industry, and the awarded contract is valued at £19,176 net, with a gross amount of £23,750.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses involved in environmental consultancy services. The successful supplier is LAND USE CONSULTANTS LIMITED, an SME based in London. Companies with expertise in environmental assessments, especially smaller consultancies with specialist knowledge, could find such opportunities advantageous for gaining public sector contracts and expanding their portfolio. The scope of work not only involves delivering professional assessments but also allows participating firms to strengthen their credentials by contributing to significant local government projects. Engaging in such procurement can therefore enhance a company's standing and pave the way for future collaborations with government authorities.
