## Summary

The procurement process, titled "A national people and nature survey," was conducted by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, focused on research and development consultancy services. This tender, which is now complete, ended on 12 July 2019. The contract commenced on 7 October 2019 and will continue until 1 March 2023. The procurement was managed through a defined term agreement under the Crown Commercial Service's Research Marketplace DPS (RM6018), covering delivery across various locations including the UK, British Overseas Territories, and Europe.

This opportunity presents a significant avenue for business growth, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in research and environmental consultancy. Businesses with expertise in natural capital accounting, environmental policy, and social assessments would be particularly well-suited to compete in future tenders. Engaging in similar public procurement processes can help these businesses increase their visibility and expand their portfolios while contributing to meaningful projects that support environmental wellbeing.

## Notice

The objective for the people and nature survey is to gather evidence relating to people's enjoyment, access and understanding of the natural environment, and contributions to wellbeing. This will contribute to Natural England's delivery of statutory duties and inform Defra policy, natural capital accounting and help underpin the 25 Year Environment Plan Indicator Framework.
