Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "C25305 Acoustic Monitoring of Red-billed Leiothrix" involves the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) as the buying organisation. This contract falls under the industry category of "Research and Development Consultancy Services" and is localised in the East of England, United Kingdom, with postal code IP24 2PU. The procurement stage is in the Award phase, and the contract period started on 3rd July 2024 and will end on 31st January 2025. The procurement method utilised was a direct, single tender action (below threshold) due to the nature of the genuine research and development project not captured by Public Contract Regulations (PCR) 2015.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in research and development within the environmental and ecological sectors. SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete under these criteria. The project aims to develop and trial an acoustic monitoring scheme for the potentially invasive Red-billed Leiothrix, providing valuable insights for future control policies. By engaging in such initiatives, businesses can expand their portfolio in government-backed environmental R&D projects, gaining experience and credibility in this niche market.

Notice Information

Notice Title

C25305 Acoustic Monitoring of Red-billed Leiothrix

Notice Description

A direct award to the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) to deliver the development and trialling of an acoustic monitoring scheme (BTO Acoustic Pipeline) for Red-billed Leiothrix, a potentially invasive non-native species (INNS) to the UK. The outputs of this pilot project will improve APHA's understanding of how widely dispersed Red-billed Leiothrix birds are and inform whether a control policy is recommended. This is a below threshold requirement and genuine research and development (R&D) and therefore not captured by Public Contract Regulations (PCR) 2015.
