The Environment Agency (EA) is seeking expressions of interest and pre-market engagement from suppliers for its Collaborative Delivery Framework (CDF) 2.<br/><br/>CDF2 will deliver asset management activities across the whole of the EA's asset base including Flood and Coastal Risk Management, Navigation and Water Land and Biodiversity assets. The framework will provide both appraisal, design, technical support and construction works that support the EA’s asset management, maintenance, refurbishment and construction programmes of work. The Framework will be required to develop, design and deliver nature based solutions and more traditional hard engineering based solutions. The framework will be used for construction projects in the range of £1m to ~£75m (upper limit TBC). Construction and detailed design services will be split across multiple value lots.<br/><br/>Interested suppliers are invited to attend a Market Engagement Webinar at 13:30 – 15:30 on the 23rd of January 2025. This Webinar will provide an overview of the proposed CDF2 framework model and the draft contracting, pricing and incentivisation approach. This webinar will be followed by in-person engagement days in Leeds on the 30th of January 2024 and in Central London on the 4th and 5th of February 2025 (locations tbc). Please note suppliers will be asked to attend only one of the in-person events. These sessions will give interested parties the opportunity to engage further on the proposed Framework model and request clarity and provide feedback on the proposed opportunity, ahead of the tender process commencing July 2025 (expected date). Further market engagement and an issue of the draft tender pack will be undertaken prior to the tender date commencing.<br/>We currently expect the framework to be divided into three Lots. Lot 1 will provide strategy, appraisal and design services. Lot 2 suppliers will be expected to provide simple appraisal and business case services, early supplier engagement to support business case and outline design development, detailed design services, and construction works from a value of £1m to ~£5m. Lot 3 suppliers will be expected to provide business case development services, early supplier engagement to support business case and outline design development, detailed design services, and construction works from a value of ~£5m+. We expect that all services in Lots 2 and 3 will be procured through a single contracting entity. <br/><br/>All lots will be awarded on a geographic basis, this is expected to be across 3 regional hubs. All suppliers will also form part a pool to deliver nationally commissioned work. In addition, all Lot 3 suppliers will be required to have operational capability on a national basis. All Lots will include the option for the Environment Agency to run competitions for certain projects.<br/><br/>It is anticipated that the Framework will be open to use by other Public Contracting Authorities.<br/>Detailed below is an indicative, average annual spend profile that we anticipate for a supplier appointed onto one space within each individual Lot.<br/><br/>The figures are based on previous spend together with projections for future budget profiles. It will fluctuate depending on geography. These figures are based on an assumed cost model, and maybe subject to change. The Environment Agency is not committing to the figures below. <br/><br/>This information is provided to enable suppliers to understand the value and scale of the relative Lots.
