PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Caledonian Climate Partners is buying peatland restoration services for Rumsdale Estate in the Highlands, covering Phases 1 to 4. The work is an environmental restoration project intended to improve and restore peatland across the estate. It is a single requirement delivered at Rumsdale Estate, Highland, and falls under CPV 90700000, environmental protection services. The opportunity is being procured by Caledonian Climate Partners on behalf of the estate. The requirement is suited to contractors that undertake practical peatland restoration and associated environmental works, rather than suppliers of standard goods or routine general services. The detailed scope and project requirements are set out in the Statement of Requirements, which forms the basis for the tender response and the proposed delivery work.

The process has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. Bids were due by 8 September 2026 at 12:00 UTC, with electronic bid opening at the same time. The contract is planned to run from 1 October 2027 to 31 March 2030, and bids must remain valid until 29 March 2030. There is one lot covering all four restoration phases. Evaluation is based on suitability against the requirements in the Statement of Requirements, and bidders must provide the names and qualifications of staff assigned to the work. Variant bids are not permitted. The proposed contract is dependent on funding being secured; the successful tender response will support a funding application to Peatland ACTION. Electronic payment and ordering are supported, and electronic invoicing is allowed.

This opportunity suits environmental contractors with direct experience of peatland restoration and the practical capability to deliver a multi-phase programme on an estate in the Highlands. Businesses should be able to demonstrate that their proposed team has the professional qualifications and expertise required by the Statement of Requirements, and must identify the staff who will perform the work. It is likely to suit established restoration specialists, land-management contractors and environmental service providers able to organise suitably qualified personnel for a substantial, long-running site project. The single-lot structure presents one integrated delivery requirement across Phases 1 to 4, so bidders should have the capacity to manage the full scope rather than only isolated tasks. The funding application creates a dependency before the contract proceeds.
