## Summary

The Malvern Hills District Council has completed the procurement process for a Level 1 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) and Water Cycle Study on 23 January 2019. This procurement falls within the consulting services for water-supply and waste consultancy industry category, located in the West Midlands, United Kingdom.

The procurement method used was designated as 'Other,' and the contract period extended until 31 March 2019.

This tender presents significant opportunities for consulting firms specialising in environmental risk assessments, especially those with experience in flood risk management and climate change analysis. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-suited to participate, leveraging their expertise to contribute towards sustainable development and responsible environmental planning in response to increasing urbanisation and climate challenges.

## Notice

Malvern Hills District Council invited Tenders from Potential Consultants on behalf of the South Worcestershire Councils (SWC) (Malvern Hills District Council, Worcester City Council and Wychavon District Council) for the provision of a Level 1 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) including a Water Cycle Study (WCS) (stage 1) and a Flood Risk Assessment of Allocated Sites (stage 2). The SWDPR is seeking to balance the areas future needs for housing and employment growth with its environmental limitations (including flood risk). The SWC initially require a level 1 SFRA and associated Water Cycle Study to identify the potential flood risks across the districts, followed by further flood risk assessment work to determine the suitability of 'preferred' development sites as they emerge through the SWDPR process to help produce a robust, detailed and up to date evidence base. Following on from this a further stage of work may be required to produce a more detailed assessment of the flooding implications of options for development sites only if land outside flood risk areas can't appropriately accommodate all the necessary development and the National Planning Policy Framework's Exception Test needs to be applied (separate to this tender). All work produced must factor in Climate Change and assess the impact that land use changes and development in the area will have on flood risk.
