Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council commissioned an annual ecological data management service for its Local Wildlife Sites system. The work covers maintaining the system’s data, including geographic information system (GIS) data and mapping, species records and landowner liaison. It also includes development control data searches, provision of Defra Local Sites information and processing of 160 indicator datasets. This is a specialist data service supporting the council’s management of local wildlife sites. The named delivery area is Yorkshire and the Humber, in England.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Yorkshire & Humber Ecological Data Trust, trading as North and East Yorkshire Ecological Data Centre. The council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The award covers one lot. The contract was signed on 4 August 2026 and runs from 4 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £42,445 excluding VAT (£50,934 including VAT). The published procurement information does not set out an evaluation basis or eligibility requirements; the award information identifies the selected supplier and the data services covered.

This award shows demand from East Riding of Yorkshire Council for a specialist ecological data service combining ongoing dataset management with GIS mapping, species information, landowner liaison and development control searches. A credible provider for this requirement would need the capacity to maintain accurate Local Wildlife Sites records and handle the associated data and mapping workflows, alongside knowledge of Defra Local Sites and the 160 indicator data process. The selected provider is an ecological data centre, indicating the type of specialist organisation that has delivered the work. Suppliers considering this buyer’s future requirement should be able to provide the full service as an integrated annual offer, rather than only isolated data or mapping tasks.
