UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Medway Council is procuring services to update the Hoo Surface Water Management Plan model. The work concerns environmental and water-management planning, using modelling to support the assessment and management of surface-water risks in Hoo and the surrounding Medway area. It is a service requirement rather than a construction project or supply contract. The specification of requirements will define the detailed work, outputs and technical approach expected from the appointed provider. The procurement is categorised under marine conservation strategy planning and natural-resources management or conservation strategy planning services, although the stated requirement is specifically focused on updating a surface-water management plan model. Businesses providing environmental consultancy, flood-risk analysis, hydrological or hydraulic modelling, and related water-management planning services are the most relevant potential suppliers.

The procurement has reached tender: Medway Council invited quotations through a below-threshold open competition. It covers one requirement, with a contract period from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. The estimated value is £30,000 excluding VAT and £36,000 including VAT. Enquiries had to be submitted by 12:00 on 23 September 2026, and offers had to be submitted electronically by 12:00 on 24 September 2026. Evaluation is weighted 60% to quality and 40% to price, so the proposed technical approach and ability to deliver the required model update carry more weight than cost. Bids could be submitted electronically through the specified eSourcing response route.

This opportunity suits specialist environmental and water-management consultancies with the technical capability to update and apply surface-water management models. Relevant strengths include flood-risk assessment, hydrological or hydraulic analysis, environmental modelling, interpretation of drainage and catchment data, and translating technical findings into a practical management plan. Suppliers should be able to understand an existing model, identify and implement appropriate updates, check the reliability of outputs, and present results clearly for a local-authority client. The stronger quality weighting favours businesses able to demonstrate a robust methodology, sound technical judgement, quality assurance and clear deliverables, rather than competing on price alone. It may suit an experienced specialist consultancy or a capable smaller firm with appropriate modelling expertise and delivery capacity.
