Summary of the contracting process

The Environment Agency bought project management consultancy support for its Project and Programme Delivery team, supporting projects in the Midlands Hub Delivery Programme. The work covers senior project managers and project managers to help deliver projects across flood and coastal risk management, water resources, and environment and navigation programmes. The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs undertook the procurement on the Agency’s behalf. The services are intended to support successful completion of the programme’s projects, rather than deliver a single construction or engineering project. The work is associated with the Midlands programme; no more specific delivery location is identified.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Mott MacDonald Limited on 23 September 2026. The Environment Agency used a competitive selective procedure to award through an existing framework. This was a single lot for client support services. The award value is £927,190.70 excluding VAT (£1,112,628.84 including VAT). The contract period runs from 28 September 2026 to 30 September 2027, with options for annual extensions up to the framework’s end date, which is 30 September 2030. The recorded contract period’s maximum extent is also 30 September 2030. The requirement was evaluated competitively; the release gives no further detail on the award criteria.

This award shows demand from the Environment Agency for senior and project managers embedded in a client-side project and programme delivery team. Suppliers competing for similar work will need to demonstrate credible capacity to provide both senior project managers and project managers, and experience supporting successful delivery across flood and coastal risk management, water resources, and environmental and navigation programmes. The requirement spans a programme portfolio rather than a single project, so relevant programme-level coordination and the ability to work across different technical disciplines are likely to be important. The route used was a competitive award under a framework, making framework access and the ability to compete through that route commercially relevant. The selected supplier was a large consultancy, indicating the scale of provider that secured this particular award, though not a stated minimum qualification.
