## Summary

The public procurement process conducted by Natural England, a central government public authority based in London, sought an environmental contractor for the WADER Project Wetland Creation at Kiln Point, Bamburgh, Northumberland. This project, classified under the works category, aimed to address diffuse pollution affecting the Lindisfarne Site of Special Scientific Interest by creating a larger wetland system. The open procurement method, titled "Below threshold - open competition," was completed with the contract awarded to HAYWOOD CONTRACTING. The tender stage concluded on 28 April 2025, and the contract was signed on 1 July 2025. Project execution is scheduled from 4 August 2025 to 31 October 2025, reinforcing Natural England's commitment to environmental improvements. The project's contract value was specified as £48,000 gross.

This procurement creates substantial growth opportunities for SMEs, particularly those specialising in environmental improvement works and wetland construction. Businesses experienced in handling contracts with below-threshold open competition, and those that can operate within the defined geographical and temporal constraints, will find this opportunity particularly suitable. The project is well-suited for businesses capable of delivering innovative solutions to ecological and infrastructural challenges, positioning them for potential future contracts in similar environmental enhancement initiatives. The focus on the Lindisfarne SSSI further highlights the importance of expertise in environmentally sensitive projects.

## Notice

We wish to appoint an environmental contractor to create a new wetland system to tackle diffuse pollution impacting Lindisfarne Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). The project seeks to replace an existing open field ditch with a larger wetland area to slow the flow of water through the system and increase the potential for the uptake of nutrients and settlement of sediments. The work is funded through the LIFE WADER Project LIFE20 NAT/UK/000277.
