## Summary

The Environment Agency, headquartered in London, has completed the procurement process titled "RDE382 Extreme rainfall estimation improvements Phase 1" under the category of Research and development consultancy services (CPV code 73200000). The tender involved a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, valued at £112,255.4, focuses on improving methods for extreme rainfall estimation, vital for flood estimation and surface water flood risk management. The contract period spans from 5th August 2024 to 30th July 2025, covering territories including the UK, Europe, and beyond.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in research and development consultancy services. SMEs and VCSEs are specifically noted as suitable candidates, indicating a supportive approach for smaller enterprises and social value-focused organisations. Companies with expertise in environmental modelling, flood management, and hydrological assessments are particularly well-suited to compete and leverage this opportunity to enhance their market presence and contribute to innovative environmental solutions.

## Notice

The standard tools for flood estimation in the UK are the methods in the Flood Estimation Handbook (FEH). These include rainfall-runoff modelling methods, which require extreme rainfall estimates as an input. Extreme rainfall estimates are also used to model surface water flood risk, and to assess the probability of observed extreme events.
