Spend pattern
What Natural England buys, and how the spend behaves
Natural England has issued 71 tracked awards worth £6.8m across the period we monitor. The average award sits at £96k. Spend skews towards Environmental services, Environmental training services and Research and development consultancy services. The largest single award we have on record went to Jacobs UK Ltd for £1.6m, on a tNCEA England Ecosystem Survey Soil Sampling and Assessment Survey 2025-26 notice. Only 15.5% of awards have gone to SMBs, so smaller suppliers are under-represented relative to the wider market. Activity is broadly flat versus the prior month.

How Bidwell helps
Win more of the Natural England pipeline
SMB share at Natural England is 15.5%, well under the public-sector benchmark. If you are a smaller supplier, you are statistically under-represented in this pipeline, and Bidwell is built to change that. We watch every notice the buyer publishes, score it against your past wins, and draft a complete first response in around 30 minutes so you can bid on the awkward ones you would normally skip.
