Summary of the contracting process

Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park Authority seeks consultancy services to analyse and synthesise existing evidence and map spatial opportunities across the National Park. The work covers nature networks, climate adaptation, including natural flood management, and blue-green infrastructure. The analysis is intended to identify places where coordinated land management or changes in land use could deliver multiple benefits, helping to inform the spatial strategy for the Local Development Plan Update. The supplier must also identify in the final report whether collecting new data could further refine the opportunities. Delivery is across the National Park. The work is an evidence-led opportunity-mapping commission rather than a request to carry out physical infrastructure or land-management works.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure, and this procurement reached the tender stage. It is a single-lot service contract with an estimated value of £50,000. The contract period is 150 days. The buyer set the bid submission deadline and bid opening for 16 November 2026 at 10:00. Bids must be submitted electronically in English and remain valid for 90 days after submission. Variants are not allowed. The award period is scheduled to start at the submission deadline. The tender asks bidders to identify the opportunities and multiple benefits from coordinated land management or land-use change; no further evaluation weighting or scoring basis is stated in the procurement details presented here.

This opportunity is best suited to environmental planning, spatial analysis and land-use consultancy teams able to bring together existing evidence and turn it into mapped, decision-ready opportunities. Relevant expertise includes nature-network planning, climate adaptation, natural flood management and blue-green infrastructure, alongside an understanding of how coordinated land management or land-use change can produce multiple benefits. The supplier needs to produce a final report that identifies potential locations and flags where additional data collection could improve the analysis. The requirement calls for named staff and their qualifications, so bidders should be ready to show who will do the work and their relevant professional credentials. It offers a focused, time-limited analytical commission for a team with the capacity to work across a national park.
