The contract concerns the continuation of access to critical datasets for flood modelling, forecasting, and environmental analysis. This procurement was conducted through a limited award procedure without a prior call for competition due to the unique nature of the data provided by UKCEH. Key locations involved include North Lanarkshire in Scotland and Wallingford in South East England. The contracts were signed on 17 July 2024, with the process reaching the award stage on 29 July 2024. The total value of the contracts is £52,575.15.

It underscores the importance of specialised datasets in statutory duties and public service delivery, especially in environmental monitoring and assessment. Businesses that can offer unique, high-quality data products or services that complement or enhance SEPA's existing resources would be well-positioned to compete in similar future procurements.
