A €42.76 million open works framework for 2026 to 2029 covers hydrogeological risk prevention, hydraulic safety, and maintenance across three Modena lots.
Opening hook
Agenzia Regionale per la Sicurezza Territoriale e la Protezione Civile is procuring a large works framework for hydrogeological risk prevention, hydraulic safety, and maintenance of public water-domain areas in Modena. The framework is structured around three territorial lots: Montagna Secchia, Montagna Panaro, and Pedecollina. With an estimated value of €42.76 million, a 48-month duration, EU funding, and quality as the stated award criterion, the opportunity sits in a substantial public works category where technical delivery capacity will matter from the first qualification decision.
The procurement is framed as a framework agreement for the 2026 to 2029 annualities and covers works connected to the Secchia-Panaro river basin territorial security area. For contractors active in hydraulic works, water infrastructure, civil engineering, and territorial risk mitigation, the opportunity combines multi-year delivery, lot-based competition, and a sizeable recorded comparable-award market.

Authority and history
Agenzia Regionale per la Sicurezza Territoriale e la Protezione Civile is identified as a regional or local agency or office in Italy, with general public services listed as its main activity. The procurement sits within its remit for territorial security and civil protection, with the works directed at hydrogeological risk prevention, hydraulic safety, and maintenance of public water-domain areas.
Recorded buyer history points to a concentrated procurement record. No open tenders are recorded for this buyer, either overall or in the similar category. The renewal profile is more substantial: seven similar renewals worth €230 million and 12 renewals overall worth €241 million are recorded.
Award history is also concentrated around comparable works. The authority has 39 similar contract awards worth €146 million and 51 contract awards overall worth €148 million. The difference between similar awards and total awards suggests that the recorded award profile is heavily weighted towards this type of work. No similar prior notices and no prior notices overall are recorded for this buyer profile.
The wider market context is larger than the authority record alone. Other buyers with similar projects account for 288 recorded opportunities or contracts worth €6.0 billion. That figure gives bidders a broader reference point for demand around water-related construction, hydraulic safety, and territorial protection works.
Competitive landscape
Available comparable award data identifies the top suppliers by recorded activity; Hermix users can access the full comparable contractor list inside the platform with a free account. For this opportunity, the recorded comparable awards identify a supplier set dominated by Italian consortia and civil works contractors. The country profile is entirely Italian: €146 million across 39 contracts, with an average contract value of €3.7 million.
The largest recorded comparable supplier is Consorzio Innova Soc Coop, with €24 million across four contracts and an average contract value of €6 million. I R Consorzio Imprese Romagnole follows with €22 million across three contracts and a €7.4 million average. Consorzio Fra Cooperative di Produzione e Lavoro Cons Coop Societa Cooperativa records €21 million across three contracts, averaging €7.1 million. Consorzio Con S Societa Cooperativa records €19 million across three contracts, averaging €6.3 million.
The next tier includes C F C Consorzio Fra Costruttori Soc Coop with €14 million across two contracts and a €7 million average. Morani records €7.6 million from one contract, while Consorzio Corma records €6.3 million from one contract. Impresa Cogni records €5.3 million across two contracts, Consorzio Stabile Poliedro records €4.5 million across two contracts, and Vetrucci Deliso Costruzioni Generali Societa a Responsabilita Limitata records €3.1 million across two contracts.
The top 10 recorded comparable suppliers account for approximately €126.8 million. The top three by value account for approximately €67 million, or about 53% of that recorded top-supplier total. The top five account for approximately €100 million, or about 79%. The pattern is clear enough without overstating it: value is concentrated around a limited group of consortia, while the contract counts show repeat activity across several named suppliers.
Commercial and procedural signals
The procurement is an open procedure, which gives qualified suppliers a direct route into the competition. Delivery fit is the central commercial filter. The works cover hydrogeological risk prevention, hydraulic safety, and maintenance of public water-domain areas, divided across three territorial lots in Modena.
Quality is the stated award criterion. No price criterion is specified. The detailed procurement materials should therefore drive the bid strategy, particularly where bidders need to understand how technical quality, delivery method, organisational capacity, and lot-specific execution will be evaluated.
The lot structure matters commercially. Lot 1, Montagna Secchia, represents about 29.6% of the total estimated value. Lot 2, Montagna Panaro, represents about 32.1%. Lot 3, Pedecollina, represents about 38.3%. The lots are close enough in scale to support selective bidding, but large enough that each requires credible capacity in its own right.
The 48-month duration gives the framework a multi-year profile covering the 2026 to 2029 annualities. EU funding is specified, which means bidders should pay close attention to the administrative and compliance requirements attached to the procurement materials. The language requirement is Italian, and the deadline falls 32 calendar days after publication. For a €42.76 million works framework split into three lots, that is a compact preparation window.
Strategic context
The procurement sits in a category where public authorities buy works capacity and continuity of execution across risk-prone physical environments. The stated scope connects hydrogeological risk prevention, hydraulic safety, and maintenance of water-domain areas. The framework structure indicates a planned programme across the 2026 to 2029 annualities.
The supplier landscape reinforces that point. Comparable award activity is anchored by consortia and construction groups with multi-million-euro records in similar work. For new entrants or smaller specialists, the lot structure may create a route into the opportunity where their technical and organisational profile matches the scale of a four-year framework.
The authority history is also relevant. The recorded buyer profile shows no current open pipeline, but it does show €230 million in similar renewals and €146 million in similar contract awards. That combination points to a buyer profile where the category appears through renewals and awards rather than a broad current tender pipeline.
Hermix users analysing this opportunity can move from headline tender details into contractor profiles, comparable award history, buyer patterns, and renewal intelligence in minutes. For this kind of framework, the decision to bid depends on current value, competitive fit, and the ability to sustain delivery across the full framework period.
Practical takeaways for bidders
This tender is suited to contractors and consortia with documented capacity in hydraulic works, water-related construction, civil engineering, and territorial maintenance. It is also suited to suppliers that can work in Italian and handle public works procedures with EU-funded compliance requirements. The three-lot structure may suit bidders with strong territorial capacity in one or more of the Montagna Secchia, Montagna Panaro, and Pedecollina lots.
The main attention points are specific. First, bidders should decide whether to pursue one, two, or all three lots, rather than treating the framework as a single undifferentiated opportunity. Second, the quality-only award criterion means the detailed procurement materials should drive the bid strategy. Third, the 32-day submission window requires fast qualification and internal bid mobilisation. Fourth, Italian is the offer language, which affects both bid preparation and project governance. Fifth, EU funding is specified, so compliance handling should be treated as part of the qualification decision. Sixth, the comparable supplier record is heavily Italian and consortium-led, which makes delivery capacity and market positioning especially important.
Conclusions
Agenzia Regionale per la Sicurezza Territoriale e la Protezione Civile is running a €42.76 million open works framework for hydrogeological risk prevention, hydraulic safety, and maintenance of public water-domain areas in Modena. The opportunity is divided into three substantial lots, runs for 48 months, and is tied to EU funding and an Italian-language tender process. Structured tender and competitive intelligence can help bidders decide whether this is a prime opportunity, a selective lot opportunity, or a market signal to track for future work.
