Summary of the contracting process

ADLnature is buying works to restore degraded peatland at the Keodale Estate, Phase 1, in the Highlands, with the delivery location identified as Coulin Estate, Highlands. The project covers standard peatland restoration techniques for an area affected by peat haggs, gullies, peat pans, micro-erosion and drains. The work is environmental restoration and land-management construction, including peatland repair, drainage-related works and associated earthworks. NatureScot is identified as the review body. The requirement is a single project rather than a multi-lot procurement, and the technical approach is linked to the Peatland ACTION Technical Compendium. Businesses involved in peatland restoration, habitat improvement, environmental works or specialist earthworks should find the subject matter relevant.

The process has reached tender: ADLnature invited offers through an open procedure, with responses submitted electronically. The tender deadline set by the buyer is 14 September 2026 at 09:00 UTC, with bid opening at the same time and evaluation scheduled to start then. The contract period is 390 days. Bids must remain valid until 30 April 2027. The contract allows electronic payment and electronic invoicing, and submissions must be in English. Variants are not allowed. Bidders must provide the names and professional qualifications of staff assigned to the work. The procurement is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The published requirement includes a statement of requirements, site-location, access, peat-depth, designated-sites, constraints and cost documents.

This opportunity suits contractors with practical experience restoring degraded peatland and delivering environmental works in challenging ground conditions. Relevant capability includes repairing peat haggs, gullies, peat pans, micro-erosion and drains using established peatland restoration methods, supported by an understanding of the Peatland ACTION Technical Compendium. Civil engineering, earthworks and land-management firms with suitable plant, operators and site-management capacity may be well placed to compete, particularly where they can manage access and site constraints in a Highland estate environment. The requirement for staff names and professional qualifications means bidders should be ready to identify the personnel responsible for delivery and demonstrate their technical competence. The work is substantial enough to require sustained resources over an extended project period.
