## Summary

Kent County Council procured services for a Local Mitigation Fund grant supporting nutrient neutrality mitigation. The requirement concerns credit-granting services, classified under CPV 66113000, and was delivered by Stour Environmental Credits Limited. The arrangement links public funding with environmental mitigation credits, so relevant expertise includes managing or allocating credits connected with nutrient neutrality requirements and administering grant-funded mitigation activity. The buyer is Kent County Council, a sub-central public authority. The named supplier is based in Ashford, Kent, while the procurement data does not identify a separate delivery location. This is a single service requirement rather than a multi-lot programme, and it is focused on nutrient neutrality mitigation through a local mitigation fund.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Stour Environmental Credits Limited. The contract was signed on 29 October 2025 and runs from 29 October 2025 to 31 March 2026, with a maximum possible extension to 31 March 2027. Its value is £4,000,000 gross. The contract is active and renewal is available if a further request for money is made from the local mitigation fund. The process was conducted below threshold using a procedure recorded as “below threshold - unknown”. The award covers the single completed lot and the selected supplier is Stour Environmental Credits Limited. The available outcome records the supplier and contract value, but does not provide a separate award date or detailed evaluation weighting.

This procurement indicates demand from Kent County Council for a substantial, specialist environmental mitigation service rather than routine general grant administration. Businesses considering future work of this type would need credible capability in nutrient neutrality, environmental crediting and the operation of a local mitigation fund. Relevant experience would include creating, managing, allocating or funding mitigation credits, maintaining reliable financial and environmental records, and translating regulatory nutrient requirements into deliverable mitigation outcomes. The selected supplier’s role also indicates the importance of handling public funds and coordinating credit-related activity at significant scale. Organisations with established environmental markets expertise, robust governance, grant-management controls and the capacity to manage a county-level requirement would be well placed when this buyer next reviews comparable provision.
