This contract falls within the environmental services category and is based in London, England. The procurement process is at the tender stage, with the tender period having ended on 5th October 2015, having previously been published on 14th September 2015. The estimated contract value is £240,000, with a minimum value of £200,000. The contract period is scheduled to start on 19th October 2015 and run until 31st March 2017. This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in environmental services, particularly those with experience in water assessment and related environmental assessments. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be well-suited to compete for this contract, given the nature of the work involved. This project not only allows for the extension of service capabilities but also promotes growth through potential collaboration with a major government initiative, further enhancing a company's portfolio in infrastructure projects. ## Notice This notice relates to High Speed Two (HS2) Ltd's requirement to undertake Water Framework Directive (WFD) assessment surveys. A WFD assessment of the HS2 proposed scheme has previously been undertaken for surface water and groundwater bodies as part of the main and supplementary environmental statements. The previous WFD assessments were largely undertaken with desk based information. HS2 Ltd previously commissioned surveys of water bodies along the Phase One line of route to supplement the desk based assessment and confirm some of the conservative assumptions made within the Environmental Statements. The assessment to date has identified a number of locations where further survey and assessment is required. The Technical Directorate Environment Team requires an external organisation to undertake these surveys, resulting in a series of reports for each site (hereinafter referred to as the "Services"). Further information about HS2 Ltd, the hybrid Bill and Environmental Statements can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/high-speed-two-limited.
