## Summary

The Environment Agency is buying client support services for work in south-east England. The requirement is project management consultancy, delivered under the South East FRAM framework’s lot 9c. The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs is undertaking the project on the Agency’s behalf. The procurement concerns professional support to the Agency’s client-side project work; the published title and description do not set out further tasks or a specific project purpose. The named service category is project management consultancy services. Arcadis Tetra Tech, based in Leeds, was selected to provide the services.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Arcadis Tetra Tech on 11 September 2026. The award value is £874,718.42 excluding VAT (£1,049,662.10 including VAT). The initial contract period runs from 6 October 2026 to 30 September 2027, with options described as 1+1+1 and a stated renewal period of 36 months; the maximum contract end date is 30 September 2030. This was a competitive award under an existing framework, using a selective procurement method. The information identifies one lot and the service category, but does not provide separate award evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility conditions.

For consultancy firms seeking comparable Environment Agency client-support work, this award shows demand for project management consultancy delivered through the South East FRAM framework. A credible competitor would need to provide project management consultancy capacity and be eligible to compete through the relevant framework route. Arcadis Tetra Tech, a large supplier, was selected for this requirement, so firms should be able to demonstrate the organisational capacity to deliver professional support at a substantial scale. The procurement data does not describe specific technical accreditations, named staff qualifications or particular project-management methods, so the award does not establish these as requirements. The commercial signal is specific to client support services for the Agency in south-east England, with delivery through the framework rather than an open standalone competition.
