Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency appointed project management support for its Midlands Hub Delivery Programme. The work is to provide senior project managers (PM1) and project managers (PM2) within the client’s Project and Programme Delivery team, helping deliver projects across flood and coastal risk management, water resources, environment and navigation. The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs undertook the project on the Agency’s behalf. This is a project management consultancy service, rather than the delivery of the programme’s engineering or environmental works. The requirement covers professional staff working within the client team to support successful completion of its projects. The procurement relates to the Midlands programme; no more specific delivery location is stated.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to AECOM Limited on 23 September 2026. The awarded value is £414,197.76 excluding VAT (£497,037.31 including VAT). The initial contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027, with annual extensions possible until 30 September 2030, the stated framework end date. The award was made competitively under a framework, using a selective process. There was one lot, covering client support services. The procurement data does not provide specific scoring criteria or eligibility thresholds, so the stated basis for evaluation is limited to the competitive framework award route.

For suppliers seeking comparable future work with the Environment Agency, this award shows demand for experienced project managers who can operate as part of a client-side Project and Programme Delivery team. Credible providers need to supply both senior PM1 and PM2 capability and support delivery across a mixed programme spanning flood and coastal risk management, water resources, environment and navigation. The selected supplier is a large consultancy, demonstrating that an established organisation was chosen for this requirement, although the procurement does not state a specific minimum company size or named professional accreditation. Suppliers should be able to evidence relevant project management experience, provide suitably senior staff, and work across several programme areas. The route used was a competitive award under a framework, so framework access and the ability to compete through that route are commercially relevant.
