## Summary

Portsmouth City Council commissioned services to prepare Strategic Environmental Assessment documentation supporting the Future Portsmouth Plan. The requirement is environmental planning work, involving the assessment documentation needed to inform and support the council’s future planning framework. The buying organisation is Portsmouth City Council, a local public authority based at the Civic Offices in Portsmouth. Delivery is in Portsmouth, within the United Kingdom. This opportunity is therefore relevant to environmental consultancies, planning practices and multidisciplinary organisations with experience of Strategic Environmental Assessment and its application to local authority plans. It is a focused professional services requirement rather than a construction, supply or general administrative contract, with the work centred on producing credible environmental assessment material for a major local planning programme.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to AECOM LIMITED. One lot was completed, with AECOM appointed as the supplier. The contract was signed on 28 July 2026, with delivery running from 29 July 2026 to 1 April 2029. The awarded contract value is £78,400 gross, in GBP. The procurement was conducted as a below-threshold process using a procedure recorded as unknown. The award is active and the contract is active. The published requirement was to support the Future Portsmouth Plan through Strategic Environmental Assessment documentation, and the award covers environmental planning services. Businesses reviewing this outcome should treat it as evidence of a completed local authority purchase, rather than an opportunity to submit for this contract.

This award identifies a clear capability profile for suppliers seeking comparable work for Portsmouth City Council: practical Strategic Environmental Assessment expertise, environmental planning knowledge and the ability to prepare formal assessment documentation that supports a local plan. A credible competitor would need to understand how environmental evidence is developed, structured and applied within local authority planning processes, and to translate technical findings into documentation usable by planning officers and decision-makers. Experience supporting plan preparation, coordinating environmental inputs and working to public-sector requirements would strengthen a future offer. The successful supplier is a large environmental and infrastructure consultancy, showing that the buyer accepted a provider with substantial organisational capacity. Smaller specialist consultancies may therefore need to demonstrate equivalent technical depth, resilience and delivery capacity through their own team or established partners.
