This initiative, functioning under the procurement title "SE - THMS - Thames Wreck Management," fell under the services industry category, specifically focusing on salvage and refloating services. The procurement process progressed through various stages including planning, tender, and award phases, with the most significant developments occurring throughout 2025 and 2026. The award phase was completed by 31st March 2026. The Environment Agency applied an open procurement method to manage this substantial project, which featured multiple lots to accommodate varied geographic locations. This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in marine salvage and towing services, providing a platform to expand service offerings and enhance market presence by engaging in high-profile public sector projects. SMEs, particularly those with capabilities in managing multiple projects concurrently due to the mixed geographic nature of the tender's lots, are well-suited to compete effectively. The Environment Agency's requirement for removing approximately 70 vessels ensures that interested contractors can look forward to consistent work flow, while fostering sector resilience and operational growth among participating firms. ## Notice Provision of services to recover and remove sunken and abandoned vessels from reaches of the non-tidal River Thames between Pinkhill Lock and Teddington Lock. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Eynsham - Iffley Lot 1 Eynsham - Iffley.
