UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead commissioned consultancy services for Strategic Environmental Assessment and Habitats Regulations Assessment to support its new Local Plan. The work covers environmental assessment and planning considerations for the plan. The procurement was arranged as a single lot, with delivery in the Royal Borough area. The buyer is the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead, a local authority.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to AECOM Limited. The contract was signed on 3 September 2026 and runs from 18 September 2026 to 17 September 2029. Its value is £76,840 excluding VAT (£92,208 including VAT). The procurement was described as below threshold; the specific procedure is not clear from the published details. The award covers one lot. No award date or evaluation criteria are reported.

This award demonstrates demand from the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead for specialist environmental assessment consultancy to support local-plan preparation. A credible competitor would need to offer a qualified consultancy service covering both Strategic Environmental Assessment and Habitats Regulations Assessment, and be able to apply these assessments to a local planning document. The work combines environmental impact assessment with environmental planning, so suppliers need relevant capability across those linked disciplines. The contract was delivered by a large consultancy, indicating that firms with the expertise and capacity to manage both assessment strands may be well placed when this requirement returns to market.
