## Summary

The Environment Agency has completed a procurement process entitled "RDE675 A natural capital approach to holistic water management from Source-to-sea." This project falls under the "Research and development consultancy services" industry category and is designed to develop a repeatable method for Integrated Appraisals aimed at improving water management from source-to-sea through natural approaches. The procurement, carried out using a selective process, followed a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period ended on 17th October 2024, with the contract starting on 24th October 2024 and concluding on 31st March 2025. This project covers a broad geographical scope, including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the United Kingdom, and other global regions.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses focused on environmental consultancy and integrated water management solutions. The project aims to break down siloes and improve the effectiveness of interventions, thereby generating greater social, economic, and environmental benefits. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for such opportunities, given the project's alignment with innovative and sustainable water management strategies. Jeremy Benn Associates Limited (t/a JBA Consulting) has been awarded the contract, demonstrating the potential for similar businesses to secure lucrative contracts in this sector.
