## Summary

The procurement process undertaken by the Department for Transport (DfTc) focuses on the project titled "Aviation Local Air Quality Dispersal Modelling." The goal is to provide expert modelling of air quality pollutants dispersal around airports. With a classification under the Research Services industry category, this process targets locations worldwide, including British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, and the United Kingdom. The tender has reached the award stage as of 2 July 2026, following the completion of the tender period on 25 June 2026. With a total contract value of £90,000, the procurement was conducted using a selective method, specifically a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, and is scheduled to run from 1 July 2026 to 31 March 2028.

This tender represents a key opportunity for businesses specialising in environmental research and services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) who can deliver sophisticated modelling solutions. Ideal contenders are those with capabilities in innovative air quality analysis and a track record in aviation-related projects. The Department for Transport’s commitment to enhancing environmental monitoring in aviation offers a substantial growth avenue for suppliers like Cambridge Environmental Research Consultants, who have been awarded the contract. Companies aiming to establish or enhance their footprint in governmental research services would find this opportunity particularly compelling.
