Natural England, a central government public authority based in London, has recently completed a procurement process entitled "An evidence review of the Holderness Inshore region." This tender was issued to gather and analyse data on marine and coastal development impacts near the Holderness coast, aiming to consolidate existing evidence and identify research gaps. The procurement process followed an open competition method and was below threshold, culminating in the award to "Envision," a supplier based in Hexam, for environmental services.
