## Summary

The procurement process for the River Severn Partnership Peatland Groundwater Monitoring Project has been concluded by Shropshire Council, located in Shrewsbury, United Kingdom. The contract was awarded to Kisters UK Ltd. for the monitoring and management of groundwater levels in north Shropshire's peatland fields, aiming to improve agricultural efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. The procurement followed an open competition method under below threshold parameters, with a tender issued on 11th February 2026 and contract signing scheduled for 6th April 2026. The contract period starts on 1st May 2026 and could potentially extend until 30th April 2036, covering categories such as sensors and groundwater pollution monitoring services. The industry category is services, specifically catering to the monitoring of natural resources and environmental control systems.

This tender process creates significant opportunities for businesses specialising in environmental monitoring technologies and services. The project's focus on real-time, remote sensing technologies presents substantial growth potential for companies that provide innovative solutions to enhance environmental management in agricultural settings. Large enterprises, as well as SMEs with a focus on technological integration in environmental conservation, are well-suited to compete in similar tenders within the River Severn catchment area. Businesses dedicated to sensor technology and environmental services can leverage this opportunity to not only expand their market reach but also contribute successfully to sustainable agriculture and carbon reduction initiatives.

## Notice

The River Severn Partnership Advanced Wireless Innovation Region (RSPAWIR) aims to encourage the adoption of advanced wireless technologies by businesses and organisations across the River Severn catchment. Monitoring the ground water levels remotely and in real-time would enable farmers to manage the peatland more effectively and, in doing so, enhance the efficiency of lowland peat to reduce carbon emissions. The RSPAWIR have identified 10 peatland fields in north Shropshire and have agreed in principle with the landowners to install ground water monitoring equipment on their land.
