## Summary

The Defra Network eTendering Portal has concluded the procurement process for the "Mids - CDF lot 1 - Black Country Catchment Project Scoping" contract, classified under civil engineering consultancy services. The tender period ended on 3rd July 2020, and the contract commenced on 6th July 2020, concluding on 31st July 2020. The project is located in the West Midlands, United Kingdom, and aimed to conduct initial investigatory works essential for programme development. The award value was £28,000, with Ove Arup & Partners Ltd selected as the supplier through a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in civil engineering consultancy services. Given the nature of the project, businesses with expertise in environmental assessment, catchment management, or civil engineering would be particularly well-positioned to compete. Engaging in such contracts can foster business growth by enabling companies to demonstrate their capabilities in handling similar future projects and accessing a broader market through proven experience with significant governmental bodies.

## Notice

This project aims to enable initial investigatory works to be undertaken in development of the pipeline programme. It is anticipated that this initial scope will take 6-8 weeks of work and result in a more detailed scoping exercise being undertaken for both identified individual projects and catchment-based assessments of work required to support development of the wider programme.
