Published justification: This contract was awarded as a direct call-off under the ESPO Framework Agreement 664_25 (Consultancy Services). The framework was procured in compliance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and lists The Environment Partnership (TEP) Ltd as an approved supplier. The call-off value (£13,932 ex VAT) is below the UK procurement thresholds and therefore not subject to the requirement for prior publication of a call for competition on Find a Tender.
