This procurement, listed under research services, is active and located in Aberdeen, UK. The tender period ends on 30th November 2017, and the contract is expected to commence on 2nd April 2018, running until 31st March 2023. The method of procurement is an open procedure, allowing broad participation. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in environmental consulting and project management, particularly those with expertise in Strategic Environmental Assessments and offshore energy sectors. Smaller enterprises, particularly SMEs, are encouraged to participate, as the procurement is designed to be inclusive and accessible to diverse providers. By competing for this contract, businesses can enhance their visibility in the offshore energy industry and contribute to significant environmental assessments, thus driving growth and expanding their service offerings. ## Notice BEIS is responsible for administering environmental legislation that applies to offshore oil and gas, offshore gas and carbon dioxide storage. The Department has had a legal obligation since 2004 under EU Directive 2001/42/EC and the implementing UK SEA Regulations to undertake an SEA to inform its decision on plans and programmes covering offshore oil and gas, offshore gas and carbon dioxide storage, and offshore renewables. This means that SEAs need to be carried out and maintained as necessary prior to licensing / leasing rounds in which offshore areas on the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS) are offered. Screening and Appropriate Assessments will additionally be required, if any applications relating to a specific licensing round could potentially significantly affect the integrity of any site designated, or being considered for designation, under the Habitats Directive (EC/92/42/EEC) or the Wild Birds Directive (EC/79/409/EEC). The specification for this project is attached. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4f4f6a31-be0f-4a8b-9f9d-e15ad1b7bf8f | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 19 Oct 2017 | | Submission deadline | 30 Nov 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Apr 2018 - 31 Mar 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | DEPARTMENT FOR BUSINESS, ENERGY AND INDUSTRIAL STRATEGY (BEIS) | | Locality | ABERDEEN | | Post town | Aberdeen | | Postcode | AB10 1BJ | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM5 North Eastern Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM50 Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire | | Local authority | Aberdeen City | | Electoral ward | Midstocket/Rosemount | | Westminster constituency | Aberdeen South | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73110000 - Research services ## Release History - 19 Oct 2017 at 12:18 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4f4f6a31-be0f-4a8b-9f9d-e15ad1b7bf8f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4f4f6a31-be0f-4a8b-9f9d-e15ad1b7bf8f 19th October 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-UK-Aberdeen:-Research-services./P35A443SS4 Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
