Summary of the contracting process

ADLnature is seeking a contractor for peatland restoration works at Gledfield Estate in the Highlands. The project covers restoration of a degraded peatland area using standard restoration techniques, including work to peat haggs, gullies, peat pans, micro-erosion and drains. The requirement is classified as construction and environmental protection work, with peatland restoration as the main activity. NatureScot is identified as the review body. The work is a single project covering the stated restoration area, with the detailed scope set out in the statement of requirements. Supporting location, peat-depth, designated-sites and access maps are available to help contractors understand the site and delivery conditions. The buyer expects staff names and professional qualifications to be included with offers.

The procurement has reached tender: ADLnature invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. The deadline for bids is 18 September 2026 at 09:00 UTC; bids are opened at that time and the evaluation period starts then. The contract duration is 540 days. Bids must remain valid until 30 April 2027. This is a single-lot works opportunity. Variants are not allowed, and submissions must be in English.

Contractors should be able to interpret site information covering peat depth, access and designated sites, and develop work planning around those conditions. The requirement is suitable for businesses able to deliver a substantial site-based restoration project over a 540-day programme, with the staffing capacity to sustain delivery. Bidders must provide the names and professional qualifications of the staff assigned to the work. Familiarity with the Peatland ACTION Technical Compendium will help contractors understand the specified restoration approach.
