Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process is being conducted by RSPB Scotland for the project titled "Abernethy - mulch cutting August 2021," which falls under the environmental protection industry category. Located in Edinburgh, UK, the procurement is currently in the "Award" stage, with key activities having taken place around September 2021. The open procurement method was employed, allowing a wide range of suppliers to participate, with the contract valued at £25,000. The tender period initially concluded on 23rd August 2021, after which the work was intended to commence in September 2021.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in environmental restoration and land management, particularly those capable of handling low ground pressure machinery suitable for uneven terrains and designed to prevent environmental damage. Companies experienced in vegetation management, particularly in peatland restoration, would be well-suited to compete for this contract, as they would need to undertake the specific task of cutting and bagging heather and moss mulch. The contract's focus on environmental protection implies a preference for suppliers who understand ecological sustainability practices.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Abernethy - mulch cutting August 2021

Notice Description

As part of the peatland restoration works on An Lurg, RSPB Abernethy, I am seeking quotes to cut and bag 1500 standard size helibags of heather and moss mulch from the three mulch donor areas (areas B1, B2, B3) as shown on the attached map. It is estimated that it will be necessary to cut 8-10ha of donor areas to provide the volume required. The Restoration work is planned to start in September 2021 and so the mulch will need to be cut as early as possible in September to ensure it is ready for the helicopter.

As part of the peatland restoration works on An Lurg, RSPB Abernethy, I am seeking quotes to cut and bag 1500 standard size helibags of heather and moss mulch from the three mulch donor areas (areas B1, B2, B3) as shown on the attached map.

The Restoration work is planned to start in September 2021 and so the mulch will need to be cut as early as possible in September to ensure it is ready for the helicopter. Filled bags are to be grouped together in clusters of 5 or 6 ready for airlifting to site. Low ground pressure machinery that can be safely used on uneven and sloping terrain will be required, fitted with a cutting attachment that can fill the bags with the arisings. The site is highly designated so the operator must ensure ground damage is kept to a minimum, trees and saplings must be avoided and the Contractor must ensure that the environment is protected from fuel and oil spills at all times.
