What is being bought

Published requirement description

Framework contract for provision of marine digital aerial surveys for seabird and marine mammal abundance and distribution. This will ensure providers have passed technical and quality checks against suitability to deliver required data. Providers accepted onto the framework will later be given opportunities to bid for a series of mini-tenders across marine waters in England and / or Wales. Exact areas of interest will be determined, but surveys are likely to commence in Autumn 2022

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Provision of Digital Aerial Surveys for Seabirds and Marine Mammals in…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 5 suppliers, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
