The procurement process is currently in the tender stage with a contract value of GBP 375,000. The deadline for submitting tenders is on April 3, 2023, and the contract period spans from June 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024. This opportunity is open to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and is being conducted through an open procedure above the threshold. This tender by Natural England presents an opportunity for businesses involved in environmental services to secure a contract to assist with the England Ecosystem Survey. Companies offering services related to habitats, vegetation, peat, landscape, soil, and water biota eDNA are well-suited to compete for this tender. Successful bidders must be prepared to engage with landowners and land users to secure access permission for survey activities across various locations. ## Notice An element of the NCEA programme is the England Ecosystem Survey (EES) which is a new method of collecting environmental data. The aim of the EES is to get a true understanding of the condition of England's terrestrial environment, and to do this we need to identify landowners and land users, and secure land access permission to carry out surveys on their land. The surveys, which will be conducted under a separate contracting method to this contract, will collect data relating to habitats, vegetation, peat and landscape as well as soil and water biota eDNA and support Natural England's earth observation programme.
