Summary of the contracting process

Historic England is commissioning a research and consultancy project on recording techniques for climate-driven loss affecting heritage assets. The work will support guidance for asset owners and managers with different levels of expertise, capacity and resources. It will review existing resources, case studies and methods for recording, documenting and engaging with environmental and climate-related change, including creative and community-led approaches. The supplier will consult a range of stakeholders and use Historic England’s internal information about user needs to recommend practical recording and documentation methods. This is a services contract covering environmental, research, evaluation and conservation consultancy. The work is for Historic England, a central government public authority, and will be delivered for its heritage asset and management activities.

The procurement reached tender: Historic England invited offers through a below-threshold open competition, with electronic submission allowed. This is one lot. Questions had to be submitted by 26 October 2026 at 09:30 UTC, and offers by 28 October 2026 at 09:30 UTC. The contract period is 5 November 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender value is stated as £20,000 excluding VAT and £24,000 including VAT. The lot record gives the same amounts but records the currency as AED, whereas the overall tender records GBP. Evaluation is weighted 80% for quality and 20% for price. The procurement is for services and is below the applicable threshold.

This opportunity suits research, evaluation and consultancy organisations with experience of heritage conservation, environmental change or climate adaptation. Relevant suppliers should be able to investigate and compare recording and documentation methods, assess existing guidance and case studies, and turn findings into practical recommendations. The work also requires stakeholder consultation and the ability to understand differing levels of expertise, capacity and resources among heritage asset owners and managers. Experience of working with historic sites or buildings, natural-resource conservation, community-led or creative projects, and climate-related impacts would be directly relevant. Suppliers should be able to produce clear guidance for a varied professional and non-specialist audience. The requirement is focused on a compact research assignment rather than major implementation works.
