## Summary

The procurement process involves Cefas, a UK-based organisation, seeking services for underwater video and stills analysis for The Lizard Special Area of Conservation (SAC). The project, titled "GB-Lowestoft: CEFAS Marine underwater video and stills analysis," falls under the industry category of data analysis services. The procurement method is an open procedure, and although the tender has closed, it includes a contract period from 23 January 2018 to 23 March 2018. This tender was awarded to Marine Space for a total value of £6,600, and the award notice was published on 5 April 2018.

This tender provides a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in environmental data analysis, marine biology, or ecological consultancy. Companies that offer expertise in video analysis and quality assurance measures, particularly those familiar with new biotoping guidance, would be well-suited to participate in similar future tenders. Engaging with Cefas could lead to further contracts in marine assessment projects given their ongoing commitment to analysing and protecting marine habitats.

Cefas video and still processing protocol provided *All stills are required to be analysed *Detailed instructions are provided in the Video and Still processing protocol document provided. *A minimum of 10% of the videos and stills should be re-analysed for QA purposes and reported back. *An external QA (10% reanalysis) will be undertaken in advance of data delivery.
