## Summary

The Environment Agency is currently conducting a procurement process titled "Logistics & Storage (including Major Incident Response)" under the category of public road transport services. The tender is in the active stage and will conclude on 19th July 2017. The contract is scheduled to commence on 1st October 2017 and will last until 30th September 2021, with a total budget of £2,000,000. This open procedure is focused on providing logistics support for managing equipment related to flood response across England.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in logistics, transport services, and equipment handling, particularly those equipped to operate on short notice and manage large-scale operations related to incidents such as flooding. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-positioned to bid, as the procurement encourages diverse participation to enhance service delivery for the Environment Agency's urgent logistical needs.

## Notice

Lot 1: Major Incident Response Logistics & Storage We require a 24/7, 365 logistics service covering all of England to move, track, repatriate and store equipment before, during and after flooding. This logistics service should have the capability to deliver Environment Agency owned temporary flood barriers, pumps and ancillary equipment to locations anywhere in England operating on a 24 to 72 hour notice period to deliver equipment to site within 8 hours of confirmation. Lot 2: Non-Major Incident Response Haulage We also require a low loader and plant transport service to meet our operational and non-major incident response needs. The Environment Agency undertakes maintenance activities on watercourses. To carry out these activities, our owned plant and equipment - such as excavators, dumpers and cranes; pumps, compressors and generators - is often transported from our depots to close to the worksite. These low loader and transport services will be required when our plant and equipment exceed the carrying capacity of our own transport or where our transport is otherwise engaged
