## Summary

The Environment Agency commissioned dewatering, inspection and maintenance works at Greatford Sluice, classified as flood-defence maintenance. This involves dewatering the sluice to enable inspection and maintenance. The procurement identifies delivery in the East of England; Birmingham is the buyer’s address, not the stated work location. The requirement is a focused piece of work on a specific flood-control asset, rather than a general maintenance service.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Amalgamated Construction Ltd (AmcoGiffen). The award was made on 25 September 2026 for £79,577.56. The contract period runs from 28 September to 26 October 2026. The estimated procurement value was also £79,577.56. The Environment Agency used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The response deadline was 21 September 2026 at 12:00. The recorded suitability criteria exclude small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. No evaluation criteria or lot breakdown are stated.

The award shows the Environment Agency’s demand for specialist works to dewater, inspect and maintain a sluice, and its use of a framework call-off route for this requirement. A credible competitor for similar work would need to demonstrate the practical capability to manage dewatering safely, inspect sluice infrastructure and carry out maintenance within a short, tightly defined programme. Experience working on flood-defence or water-control assets would be directly relevant to the scope. Suppliers should also be equipped to meet the requirements of a selective framework-based procurement and to deliver as a principal contractor at the scale of a focused asset-maintenance package. The recorded SME suitability exclusion indicates that this opportunity was not designated as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.
