## Summary

The procurement process titled "MCCIP III Partnership Agreement" is organised by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, which is responsible for the coordination of marine climate change impacts in the UK. This process falls under the marine research services industry category and targets businesses in British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, and the UK, among other locations. The procurement method is characterised as "Other," and the current stage is the award phase, with the contract having been awarded on 9 March 2017 for a total value of £15,000. The contract period starts on 1 April 2016 and ends on 31 March 2017.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in marine research and environmental services, particularly those that are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies specialising in climate change adaptation, marine services, or environmental impact assessments would be well-suited to participate in similar tenders, as the project aims to strengthen the UK's capacity to deliver evidence-based advice to policymakers and stakeholders in the marine environment.

## Notice

The primary aim of the MCCIP is to provide a co-ordinating framework for the UK, so as to be able to transfer high quality evidence on marine climate change impacts, and guidance on adaptation and related advice, to policy advisors and decision-makers. In particular, MCCIP acts as the primary focus for the supply of evidence and advice to partners to enable them to individually and collectively plan for the challenges and opportunities presented by the impacts of climate change in the marine environment. This project will contribute to achieving key objectives for the work programme which are as follows: 1. Develop and maintain a co-ordinating framework for marine climate change partners in the UK 2. Build the knowledge base and consolidate evidence of marine climate change impacts, with emphasis on the spatial dimension where possible 3. Provide effective mechanisms for the efficient transfer of marine climate change knowledge from the scientific community to policy advisors and decision makers 4. Develop guidance and build upon best practice for adaptation tools and strategies available to stakeholders (e.g. "climate smart" approaches) 5. Identify present short comings in the UK marine climate science (i.e. what other science could be done/supported to help decision makers and UK marine industries) 6. Actively engage with partners and consult wider communities on requirements for climate change tools and information (e.g. marine scenarios of climate change) Additional information: Please note that Defra procurement uses e-tendering, provided by Bravosolutions.
