## Summary

The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) commissioned a digital air-pollution awareness service. The work covers developing, testing, publishing and hosting a Digital Tool Bank to support Defra’s air-pollution awareness objectives. This is a public-sector digital service and communications opportunity, combining content or tool development with user testing, online publication and ongoing hosting. The procurement is for services related to air pollution (CPV 90731000). The named buyer is Defra, a central government department, and the supplier is Global Action Plan. The work is associated with the buyer’s environmental and public-awareness activity, with the supplier based in London and the buyer’s address in London.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. Global Action Plan was selected for the single lot, and the award is active. The contract was signed and began on 8 September 2026, running until 28 February 2028. Its value is £30,000 gross, in GBP. The award concerns the complete digital tool-bank service, including development, testing, publication and hosting. The procurement record identifies the requirement and the selected supplier, but does not set out a scored evaluation framework or separate quality and price weightings. This outcome indicates a small-scale central-government digital service contract focused specifically on air-pollution awareness rather than general digital transformation or broad environmental consultancy.

For a supplier assessing future work of this type, the requirement shows demand for a compact, end-to-end digital product: turning air-pollution information or tools into a usable public-facing resource, testing it with users, publishing it online and hosting it through delivery. Credible competitors would need to combine digital service delivery with environmental or air-quality understanding and public-awareness communications. Relevant capability may include accessible content and tool design, user research and testing, web publishing, hosting and service support. Experience of working with a central government department and delivering a focused environmental information service would strengthen a future proposition. The selected supplier’s profile also indicates that a sizeable organisation can deliver this type of specialist public-interest service.
