## Summary

Historic England has successfully completed the procurement process for the Fort Cumberland Conservation Management Plan, situated in Eastney, Portsmouth. This procurement, classified under preservation services for historical sites and buildings, was executed using an open competition method below the threshold. The contract was awarded to Pritchard Architecture, a large-scale firm, with the contract period extending from 19 August 2025 to 31 March 2026.
