The contract was awarded to WSP UK Limited and aims to refine, maintain, and support the operational use of the Anglian Models, including the development of training packages for technical staff. The consultancy appointment spans one year, with the possibility of extension up to four years based on performance and resource availability. The procurement followed an open procedure, and the contract period ranges from 1st October 2024 to 30th September 2025. Key locations involved include various territories and regions such as British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and the United Kingdom, with a primary delivery address in PE2 8YY. This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for firms specializing in research and development, and consultancy services related to environmental modelling. Companies with robust experience in groundwater models and the ability to offer comprehensive training solutions will be well-suited to compete for similar future opportunities. The project's extension potential underscores long-term collaboration prospects, beneficial for businesses aiming for sustained engagement with the Environment Agency. However, SMEs and VCSEs are deemed unsuitable for this particular contract, indicating a preference for larger or more specialised firms capable of handling extensive and multi-faceted consultancy projects. ## Notice This Consultancy will follow a programme of work aimed at refining, maintaining, and supporting the operational use of the Anglian Models. It will also develop training packages to allow technical staff to interact with the groundwater models and use the model results effectively. The duration of the Consultancy appointment will be for one year, extendable to four years subject to performance. The Environment Agency will reserve the right to terminate the contract for other reasons not connected with the performance of the contract. It is intended that the four-year programme is followed but this will be subject to the resources available through annual budget allocation plus gaining project approval within the Environment Agency. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5124cd2b-a714-4b82-96ba-24ec979fb84f | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 1 Nov 2024 | | Submission deadline | 23 Jul 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 30 Sep 2024 | | Contract period | 30 Sep 2024 - 30 Sep 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £989,513 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | ENVIRONMENT AGENCY | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1P 4DF | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | WSP | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 1 Nov 2024 at 09:11 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5124cd2b-a714-4b82-96ba-24ec979fb84f - 1 Nov 2024 at 09:10 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/413426b1-b993-4246-a32c-3e4c7d43a7ad - 1 Nov 2024 at 09:10 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bbb14470-a790-4145-95a2-2150c42f0513 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5124cd2b-a714-4b82-96ba-24ec979fb84f 1st November 2024 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/413426b1-b993-4246-a32c-3e4c7d43a7ad 1st November 2024 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bbb14470-a790-4145-95a2-2150c42f0513 1st November 2024 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
