UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

London Borough of Camden commissioned technical consultancy to support its Lead Local Flood Authority on sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) and flood risk matters connected with development proposals. The work is environmental engineering and flood-risk consultancy, including advice on how proposed developments manage surface water and related hazards. Delivery is in Camden, London. The requirement is focused on technical advice and support for development-related planning matters, rather than construction or the installation of drainage infrastructure. It serves the council’s local flood authority responsibilities and involves engagement around proposals as they are assessed.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Camden used a below-threshold limited competition for one lot. WSP UK Limited was selected and the contract was signed on 24 September 2026. The contract runs from 28 September 2026 to 27 September 2029, with a gross value of £72,000. The published performance measures require all responses to be accurate and satisfactory and received within the 14-day deadline, and attendance at requested meetings and training sessions within agreed timescales. The requirement was evaluated through limited competition; no specific award scoring criteria are recorded in the available process details.

For future Camden requirements of this kind, credible competitors will need demonstrable expertise in sustainable drainage and flood-risk assessment in the context of development proposals, alongside the ability to provide dependable technical advice to a local authority. The service also calls for responsive delivery: all answers are expected to be accurate and satisfactory within a 14-day deadline, and requested meetings or training sessions must be attended within agreed timescales. Suppliers should therefore be able to allocate suitably experienced staff, maintain capacity for timely written advice and participate in discussions with the council. The award to WSP UK Limited shows that a large consultancy was selected for this focused, ongoing support requirement, rather than delivery of drainage construction works.
